Thanks for responding. I am doing this on a Surface Pro, Windows 10 Pro, 64 bit. I already had Visual Studio 2015 update 3, so I used this, and downloaded the Cumulative Service Release. I then downloaded Rust and the Mozilla/Build Package. I the opened the start-shell-msvc2015.bat. Added the line PATH=$PATH:~/.cargo/bin to my bash profile. I then made the dir with mkdir mozilla-source then went to dir. cd mozilla-source. After this I ran: hg clone https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central to clone the repository. I had a couple issues but got that done. Once that finished I went to the mozilla-central dir and ran mach build. I first received an error(rust PATH was wrong) that I fixed. Then I ran mach build again and received this error. I hope this helps. On Friday, July 21, 2017 at 8:46:47 PM UTC-4, L.
