Question
Friday, June 16, 2017 10:00 PM
I have software that requires: crtdefs.h, sal.h, tchar.h, vadefs.h, which should be at "c:\Programm Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\include\; hence I think I need to download and install Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0 x86. Where can I download this from?
I noticed this is a similar question (but the download link is broken):
I noticed I could download from here (but is this a trustworthy site?):
http://visual-studio-2010.en.malavida.com/download
I think this is the original location (but the download link is also broken):
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd831853(v=vs.100).aspx
Thanks,

Visual Studio 2010 is available to MSDN subscribers. I wouldn't trust other sites, as they are likely illegal.
However, I'm pretty confident that you can also use the crtdefs.h, sal.h, etc header files that come with Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition. Why don't you try that instead?

Thanks, where can I find those? A search in the folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio" didn't yield any *.h results.

Hi,
If you use Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition with the Visual C++ workload, those files are here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.10.25017\include
If you really need VS 2010, you can register for Visual Studio Essentials (free):
https://www.visualstudio.com/dev-essentials/
and then search for the free Visual Studio 2010 VC Express:
