Visual Studio 2017 changed the way the installer works. Instead of installing everything, which could take 30+ minutes, you now select what components you need. By default the Desktop application workload is not selected, which is needed for AdvancedHMI.
Re-run the installer and select the .NET Desktop Development option. You can see a screen shot of it here:
