Ultimate++ Win32 installation guide
U++ does not contain Win32 SDK. You can use either Microsoft® Windows SDK or Mingw compiler system.
If you want TheIDE to perform automatic setup of build methods for these compilers, you should install them before continuing this dialog (if you press exit now, automatic setup will be performed next time you launch TheIDE). If you do so later, you can still automate setup invoking Setup/Automated setup.
Microsoft® Windows SDK
Microsoft provides a free SDK including C++ toolchain for developing native Windows applications

Note that this SDK requires .NET framework 2.0 to be installed on your computer. U++ requires only a fraction of options to be installed:
Windows 7 Headers and Libs (do not worry about "Vista" here - this options contains Win98/2000/XP headers too).
x86 C++ Compiler (you might want to install x64 compiler too)
Windows SDK Utilities for Win32

TheIDE should detect all necessary directories and setup appropriate build methods. U++ can also use compilers and SDK supplied with Visual C++ 2005 or Visual C++ 2008 (any edition - you need to download separate Windows SDK for some flavors).
