That was it. It didn't occur to me that this was the problem
because I
payed closed attention during VisualD installation and saw it
properly
recognized where DMD was installed but for some reason the
path wasn't
set in Options. Once I did set it, compile and build worked.
Thanks
evilrat!
So in conclusion it seems the problem is in VisualD
installation which
doesn't set the path properly even though it recognizes where
DMD is
installed. Hope the author takes a look at this problem so
beginners
wanting to try D don't give up on a problem like this.
VS 2017 uses a "private" registry that the Visual D installer
doesn't have access to. I'll change the registry location in
the next release.
Please note that the next dmd installer will also detect VS2017
and setup directories correctly in sc.ini:

Today I saw that a new DMD version had been released. So I
downloaded it (dmd-2.074.1.exe).
Unfortunately, the installer does *not* detect VS2017, instead it
asks me to install VS2013 for x64 support.
