SDL v1.2.7 or later development package (VC6):. Use -with-qt5= to specify the path for configure.vbs. Note! This has to be built with the Visual C++ compiler mentioned above. Use -with-ddk= to specify the path for configure.vbs. Windows Driver Development Kit (WDK) v7.1 (needed primarily for building Guest Additions). Use -with-sdk10= to specify the path for configure.vbs. Windows SDK 11 and WDK 11 (just for building trunk). Use -with-sdk= to specify the path for configure.vbs. Windows Platform SDK v7.1 (just for building VirtualBox 6.1.x). Use -with-vc= to specify the path for configure.vbs.
Visual Studio 2010 with service pack 1 (for trunk: Visual Studio 2019 Version 16.11).
