Cannot build ATL_helpers in VC 2019

I recently had to wipe my computer and reinstall everything from scratch. Now I've got a project which won't build due to a brand new error in ATL_helpers:

Error   C3668    'CDialogResizeHelper::ProcessWindowMessage': method with override specifier 'override' did not override any base class methods (compiling source file CDialogResizeHelper.cpp)   foobar2000_ATL_helpers   D:\Source\foobarSDK-1.4\foobar2000\ATLHelpers\CDialogResizeHelper.h   21   

The offending code line is:

Code: [Select]
	BEGIN_MSG_MAP_EX(CDialogResizeHelper)

but naturally there isn't a single "override" in the entire CDialogResizeHelper.h file. I'm also getting the same error in WTL-PP.h too. These files are completely unedited and I reinstalled the 1.4 SDK just to make sure. Still no joy.

I have a feeling this is due to some misconfiguration in VC2019, but for the life of me I can't figure out what it is. I've tried everything. This worked just fine before my reformat. It was also working fine in debug before I reinstalled the SDK and now I get the same error on debug configs too.

I'm using the latest VS2019 update, v142 build tools, latest Windows 10 SDK, and WTL 10.

You can try using older WTL for now, version 9.1 should work.

That seems to have fixed it for now. I'm 90% sure I was using WTL10 before my reformat, so wonder if it's something related to the latest release of VC2019.

Well I got everything working in WTL10 and using the latest SDK, but I basically had to rebuild my component's VC project settings from scratch and midway through I was running into the same override issue so I think there was a fair chance I was doing something wrong the whole time. No matter, it's working now.
