Question: I'm having problems with "boost library" usage for Visual Studio 2015. I have Common Tools installed, followed this video instructions:

<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOhHMS4I9Zw>

(Basically, unzip boost, in visual studio prompt, execute, boostrap.bat, b2.exe, and in visual studio project properties, in C/C++>General>Additional Include Directories, the root of boost folder, and in Linker>General>Aditional Library Directories, "boost root"/stage/lib".

But after that, using the example of boost documentation, Visual Studio is unable to search in the boost folder. If I write the include sentence with global path (C:/...), it finds it, but all other boost files have relative paths!.

So, what am I doing wrong?. What I need to do to get Visual Studio working with boost library?

Answer: 
Yes, make sure you select 'All Configurations' in the 'Configuration' combo box when the project properties window shows up. That will apply the settings for the 'Include Directories' to all config.
Edited.

I had the same problem, but what cheated me was the configurations. When the solution was set to active on "Release" and "x64", then when opening properties in the C++ project under the solution, it could be "Debug" instead and hence missed to set the right properties for the target.
