Hi

Thank you very much for the swift response and remedy.

Thanks to the nightly build upp-mingw-9608 now MSC15 and MSC15x64 have been found automatically with the following directories already specified.

PATH executables directories:.
e:/programme (x86)/microsoft visual studio 14.0/vc/bin
c:/program files (x86)/windows kits/10/bin/x86
E:\upp-mingw-9608\upp\bin/OpenSSL-Win/bin32

INCLUDE directories:
e:/programme (x86)/microsoft visual studio 14.0/vc/include
c:/program files (x86)/windows kits/10/include/10.0.10586.0/um
c:/program files (x86)/windows kits/10/include/10.0.10586.0/ucrt
c:/program files (x86)/windows kits/10/include/10.0.10586.0/shared
E:\upp-mingw-9608\upp\bin/OpenSSL-Win/include

LIB directories:
e:/programme (x86)/microsoft visual studio 14.0/vc/lib
c:/program files (x86)/windows kits/10/lib/10.0.10586.0/ucrt/x86
c:/program files (x86)/windows kits/10/lib/10.0.10586.0/um/x86
E:\upp-mingw-9608\upp\bin/OpenSSL-Win/lib32/VC

I recognized that the installer of Visual Studio put some files to the C drive though I had specified the E drive as installation target (Microsoft SDKs, Microsoft SQL Server, etc.).

Kindly double check whether the directories enumerated above are sufficient. Perhaps links into the SDK directories are missing. If so, please let me know.

Regards
Helmut

The key question is "does it work"?

Instant setup is trying to find 'real files/directories', so if it found them on "C:", then they are really there. In this case, it looks like Visual Studio and C++ compiler were installed on E:\, but SDK was installed on C:\
