Hello,

There are some posts in this forum that might help you. Just do a search with e.g., cvtres.exe.

Best wishes,

Microsoft left a few things out of their MSVT package. Since noone knows whether they were left out by mistake or for license reasons, noone with MSVC is too interested in giving them out. A few google searches turn up some tricky sources. Fortunately, Microsoft has finally wisened up and solved this problem and many more.

A goodly amount of MSVT missing files are there but the missing SDK files aren't.

I had the same problem which I solved by doing this:

[1] Installing the Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0
[2] Adding the path of the .NET Framework files (for me "C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727") to Global compiler settings > Programs > Additional Paths within Code::Blocks.

Now I can build and link resource files without errors.
