Then your MSVC installation is OK. > Daniel, please check if you have cl.exe in PATH. > 1.) Open a command window. > 2.) call 'cl -v' Having it in PATH is not recommended for MSVC, because you need different versions depending on whether you want to compile for 32bit or 64bit, and you can install different MSVC versions in parallel. Therefore MSVC supplies the batch file vcvarsall.bat which sets the correct paths. Any program that needs the MSVC tools in PATH should always be executed after this batch file was called (in the same command window or from the .bat file that calls vcvarsall.bat). MSVC does also create a start menu entry which opens a command prompt with that file already executed, so the instructions above should read: 1.) Open the "Developer Command Prompt for VS2015" from the "Visual Studio 2015\Visual Studio Tools" subfolder of the start menu 2.) type 'cl -v' in the command window that was opened by 1) Alternatively, one could also call vcvarsall.bat manually (in case the above does not work for any reason): 1.) Open a command window. 2.) type 'call "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat" x86' 3.) type 'cl -v' The single quotes must not be typed in both cases, and the line break should be ignored as well.
