Hello,

I created a Win64 build environment by copying from a Win32 environment, and
modifying the Win32 macro to the Win64 macro.

After that, the properties window does not load anymore and building or
rebuilding does not work anymore.

On one computer, which is a slightly newer install it does work.

I'm trying to figure how to solve this. Who has an idea?

Regards

What precisely did you change?

When you say building doesn't work, what happens - anything, or do you
get errors?

If it's the same project/solution, that would indicate something on
the other machine has been corrupted. Have you tried doing a repair
installation on the affected machine?

Only the WIN32 macro, has been modified to WIN64. Further on, all settings
seemed OK.

Nothing. It displays the resume as if it did compile, but it did not display
progress etc. When I deleted all the output files, it does not rebuild the
files.

Not yet.
