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: https://github.com/dlang/installer/pull/227

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.
