LNK1104: 无法打开文件 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Windows Kits\\10\\\\lib.obj'

Question

I am generating a GoogleTest project for a C++ library in Visual Studio 2019 (Community Version) and created it via the wizard.

I have set Project/Properties/Linker/Additional Dependencies = $(WindowsSdkDir)\\lib; to resolve an initial linker error (LNK1104: cannot open file 'libcpmtd.lib') . I now get:

1>LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\\\\lib.obj'

How do I resolve this? (I notice a double slash in this path: something needs to be installed? Possibly an environment variable?)

I tried adding /VERBOSE to the command line but got no additional information.

Answer 1

Add The Library to the Path in the Properties Page -> Linker -> General, If You have Added then Try Including it in the Properties Page -> Linker -> Input. If You dont like using Slashes, Visual Studio has Macros for That, Or else Just Copy and Past the Path.
