Let's say that when I installed Visual Studio 2017 I decided to use the "Windows Universal Platform" packages. Later, I realize that I'd like to install the ".Net Desktop packages" (either instead, or in addition).
How can I go back and add those features to Visual Studio 2017? Is there a way to do this within Visual Studio? Do I have to re-run the installer?

In the Visual Studio Installer, choose the Workloads tab, and then select or deselect the workloads that you want. To add more components than a workload installs, choose the Individual components tab, and then select or deselect the individual components that you want.
You can go to tools from menu bar and then select "Get tools and features" and then you can add or modify your features.

Re-run the visual studio launcher and click on modify. Make your edits and the launcher install the missing components.

After you have installed Visual Studio 2017 you will have a program called Visual Studio Installer. Launch this application.
From here you can select modify and then add the components that you need.
