Hello all

I've run into the error of "rc.exe not found" when compiling my Fortran code. I have Visual Studio Community 2015 installed, as well as the Intel Fortran Compiler 2016 edition. I have looked at previous threads regarding topic, and none have worked efor me. I am confident that my computer doesn't even have the rc.exe file. I have looked in the following folders:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\bin
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\bin\x64

And do not see rc.exe at all. I have tried downloading the MS Windows SDK from here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/bb980924.aspx and still no help. I have even uninstalled and reinstalled VS Community. At this point I am quite frustrated and would love to hear any input. Thank you.

The default install of VS2015 does not include C++ support required by Intel Fortran. Please run the Vs2015 installer again, choose Modify or a Custom install, and check the box for Programming Languages > C++.
