On my new installation (Win8.1, VS2013), sc.ini has these lines: WindowsSdkDir=C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\ ... ; Platform libraries (Windows SDK) LIB=%LIB%;"%WindowsSdkDir%\Lib\win8\um\x64" WindowsSdkDir seems to have been detected correctly ("Windows Kits\8.1\"), but the LIB path seems to have changed under 8.1. The correct path is: "Windows Kits\8.1\Lib\winv6.3\um\x64"; it seems 'win8' was changed to 'winv6.3' in 8.1 for some reason. I amended my sc.ini like so and it works fine: ; Platform libraries (Windows SDK 8.1, 8.0) LIB=%LIB%;"%WindowsSdkDir%\Lib\winv6.3\um\x64" ;WIN8.0 LIB=%LIB%;"%WindowsSdkDir%\Lib\win8\um\x64" The installer should detect this case.

Should be fixed by ba2dd160. Manu, can you confirm it is now working for you with 2.065?
