I wanted to edit my CUDA programs using a text editor (i.e. Sublime) and compile them from the command prompt but I ran into an nvcc compiler error.

So what I did was to intall VC++ 2015 toolkit from the installation package of the VS 2017 installer (refer to the image of the top post).

Hope this helps!
