I dont feel very comfortable with the response. Are you sure this will work? If so, how it is not documented in the build guide? Is anyone in charge of maintaining the build has accurate information or is it just abandoned? The reason I mailed here is to get professional support, instead of poking around here and there which rarely works.
typically this is a result of something in your environment not set correctly, (i.e. the C include paths.) - I am aware obviously it is not finding windows.h. When EdkSetup.bat runs it is trying to find the correct version of Visual studio and run “Vcvars32.bat” to setup the corrects build environment. There is a Variable set when you install and open Visual Studio “VSxxxCOMNTOOLS” .Take a look to see if you have that variable set. It is probable VS90COMNTOOLS and should be set to the path of where Visual Studio was installed.- Where is the variable defined? Is it VSxxxCOMNTOOLS or VS90COMNTOOS? What if it is defined in multiple places? Visual Studio has many folders, which path are you referring to? Root? include? library?
