Thank you @maxwhite / @defensivedepth for your replies. I am following the instructions at https://osquery.readthedocs.io/en/stable/development/windows-provisioning. According to the docs, you should not run tools\provision.ps1 directly. I ran tools\make-win64-dev-env.bat on both my laptop (Windows 10) and a Win2k16 server, then ran tools\make-win64-binaries.bat. On both my laptop, and the server their are test failures, but the Visual Studio 2015 project is built. I tried compiling the project using VS, and receive the error that benchmark.h is not found, so I added it from https://github.com/google/benchmark/tree/master/include/benchmark, but now I get an error that benchmark.lib is not found. I made the assumption that tools\make-win64-dev-env.bat just built the VS project and you had to compile the binaries from VS. Is tools\make-win64-dev-env.bat supposed to actually create the binaries?

You can run provision.ps1 directly if you’d like, the .bat scripts just attempt to bypass execution policies. Sounds like you got your build figured out?

I did, thank you
