I really don't care. I really want to RUN AWAY (CRYING!!) from having to depend on Visual Studio 2019 or later. I can't even find C:\WinDDK\ with Visual Studio 2019 anymore, after updating from Windows 8. I'm almost crying about it. Also, we want CI, and that is not going to happen with the Visual Studio Community edition. > For that you need a native Windows toolchain, and quite possibly some > extra SDK packages from Microsoft to enable building them.

Which compiler and linker options do I have to use, which libraries do I link against etc?
