The currently recommended way (that means it has been verified to work) is
! using the "Visual Studio Community 2015" installation. This doesn't include
! the SDK for older Windows versions (95, 98), see "OLDER VERSIONS" below for
! that.
1. Microsoft Visual C++
=======================
We do not provide download links, since Microsoft keeps changing them. You
! can search for "Visual Studio Community 2015", for example. You will need to
! create a Microsoft account (it's free). You need to download the "DVD", and
! execute the installer from it.
!
! When installing "Visual Studio Community 2015 with Update 3" or "Visual C++
! Build Tools for Visual Studio 2015 with Update 3" make sure to
! select "custom" and check all checkboxes under "Universal Windows App
! Development Tools". Or whatever they are called now.
! (If you still want to target Windows XP, check also "Windows XP Support for
! C++". Note that with the current source code this is no longer supported, you
! will have to check out an older version).

The currently recommended way (that means it has been verified to work) is

! vim source code and install Visual Studio 2017 or 2015 - making sure to check
! the checkbox for "Windows XP Support for C++". Additional build instructions

Building with Visual Studio (VS2015, VS2017, VS2019 and VS2022) is
straightforward. Older versions probably don't work.
+ Vim versions built with VS2015 and VS2017 are systematically tested and known
+ to work well on Windows versions 7, 8 and 8.1.
+
+ Vim versions built with VS2015 and VS2017 are also known to work well on all
+ early versions of Windows 10. However, Vim versions built with VS2015 and
+ VS2017 may run into a known issue on the latest versions of Windows 10 and 11.
+ Building Vim with VS2019 or VS2022 resolves the issue.
+
+ Vim versions built with VS2019 and VS2022 are systematically tested and
+ known to work on Windows versions 7, 8, 8.1, 10, 11 and all respective server
+ variants.

Visual Studio installed a batch file called vcvarsall.bat, which you must
run to set up paths for nmake and MSVC. We provide a batch file
"msvc2015.bat" for this. You may need to edit it if you didn't install Visual

Ron Aaron; they have been tested. But several things changed after that...
! Targeting Windows XP with MSVC 2015 and later *new-msvc-windows-xp*
! ---------------------------------------------
(The support for pre-Vista was removed in patch 9.0.0496. If you want to
target Windows XP, use the source code before that.)

OLDER VERSIONS
! The minimal supported version is Windows 7. Building with compilers
! older than 2015 most likely doesn't work. Since MSVC 2015 can be obtained for
! free there is no point in supporting older versions.
If you need the executable to run on Windows 98 or ME, use the 2005 one
|msvc-2005-express|, and use the source code before 8.0.0029. See the
