ICC 18 not compiling C++ code after upgrading Visual Studio

[graff__havard]

We updated Visual Studio to 15.8.1, and our C++ code stopped compiling with the Intel Compiler.

The error(s) we are getting looks like this:

[1/884] Compiling C++ object vpxdec-avx2@exe/third_party_libwebm_common_hdr_util.cc.obj.

Any tips on how to solve this?

Turns out updating to Update 3 fixes the problem!
