Please file a regression under https://issues.dlang.org/. One workaround for now would be to initialize the variable at runtime, e.g. ```d static double d; shared static this() { d = exp(-1.0); } ``` I reported it there. Thanks.

Maybe check your environment variables for leftover entries from previous installations. Without a more concrete bug report it's hard to help you though, try https://issues.dlang.org/. Also there is some initial work on an alternative toolchain based on lld and mingw import libs to avoid the heavy VS installation.
