The “Visual Studio 2013 community” is not free + bugs

[DanM-Bour]

Dear horsicq,

I have installed "Qt 5.6.3 for VS2013" and the "7-Zip" as instructed. But I can't download the “Visual Studio 2013 community” !? In fact, after I have signed-in with my GitHub account (same result with my Microsoft account), I get the following page stating at:
https://my.visualstudio.com/Downloads?q=visual%20studio%202013&wt.mc_id=omsftvscom~older-downloads

"Sorry, we couldn't find any downloads for you."
"To continue, please join 'Visual Studio Dev Essentials' or
PURCHASE a 'Visual Studio Subscription'."

The "Visual Studio Dev Essentials" requires a monthly payment. Therefore, I suggest github.com to host the download.

So, I've searched for the “Visual Studio 2013 community” on the web and I've installed an ".iso" version. Then, once I've edited the paths in the "build_win32.bat" and added a 'pause' at the end to copy and paste the execution before it exits, I've launched it. The results showed the following errors:
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From the "Qt5.6.3" (default options):
‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾
E:\x64dbg-Plugin-Manager-master\gui_source>"C:\Qt\Qt5.6.3\5.6.3\msvc2013"\bin\qmake.exe gui_source.pro -r -spec win32-msvc2013 "CONFIG+=release"
"Cannot read E:/x64dbg-Plugin-Manager-master/XArchive/xarchive.pri: No such file or directory"

— The XArchive folder is still empty in your latests zip files.
Same error later in "console_source"
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From utils.h(32) : (twice: \gui_source> & \console_source> folders)
‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾
5 "fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'xzip.h': No such file or directory."
…after each process :
createmoduleprocess.cpp, getfilefromserverprocess.cpp, installmoduleprocess.cpp, removemoduleprocess.cpp and utils.cpp
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(twice: \gui_source> & \console_source> folders)

NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\BIN\cl.EXE"' : return code '0x2'
Stop.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\BIN\nmake.exe"' : return code '0x2'
Stop.

— Both files are there.
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From "build_win32.bat":
‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾
Other errors are not a big deal, but quite puzzling...

"Impossible to find..." a lot of files to delete, even though they DO exist in their respective paths.
—————————————————————————————————————————
My CMD version is [10.0.18363.449] on Microsoft Windows 10 build 1909.
Version of the system : 10.0.18363.657

According to the command>CMD /? , the registry is set to the following default :

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor\EnableExtensions REG_DWORD "0x1"
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor\CompletionChar REG_DWORD "0x9"
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor\PathCompletionChar REG_DWORD "0x9"

I can send you the execution copy of your "build_win32.bat" with my comments to locate quickly those errors.

Sincerely,

DanM-Bour

Thanks a lot for the testing!
Just install GIT if you did not got it https://git-scm.com/download/win

Write in terminal: git clone --recursive https://github.com/horsicq/x64dbg-Plugin-Manager.git It will create a folder with the last sources

Option --recursive does download all modules

Edit build_win32.bat ( check VS_PATH, SEVENZIP_PATH, QT_PATH variables)

Run build_win32.bat

It is sad to hear that VS2013 is not free anymore.
