c++ - TRK0005 error locating rc.exe building VC++ 2015 project -


i have vs 2015 c++ project (64-bit windows 10 + windows 10 sdk).

with project properties > general > target platform version set "8.1", builds fine.

when change "10.0.15063.0", hit error:

error trk0005 failed locate: "rc.exe". system cannot find file specified. 

i saw other posts fix paste exe somewhere can found. i'm looking bit more solid (e.g. version controlled).

when set 8.1, $(windowssdk_executablepath) macro includes path:

c:\program files (x86)\windows kits\8.1\bin\x86 

with rc.exe in it.

when set 10.0.15063.0, none of paths in macro have rc.exe inside them. if add path executable directories, problem goes away:

c:\program files (x86)\windows kits\10\bin\10.0.15063.0\x64 

my questions:

  • is i'm seeing expected or should rc.exe found out-the-box?
  • is safe me add path or break something?
  • am using correct path? (the 8.1 path includes "x86".)

thanks
