I have been successfully developing/building a custom study in Win 7 for quite some time. I installed Win 10 yesterday and today I cannot recompile my study. I get the same result whether I use version 1307 or the pre-release 1308. I do not know how to interpret this. The report:

This does not look like it would be Windows 10 specific.

Not sure this will help, but reinstall the compiler again by following these instructions:

The next step is to compile the Template.cpp file in the /ACS_Source folder and see if you get the same errors.

I am profoundly sorry for wasting your time. The error was all my own, a missing curly brace. As a rank amateur I was overwhelmed by the compiler references and did not trouble myself to examine the reported coding error. It was only after I installed MS Visual C++ Visual Express, that I began to look seriously for the error. I am truly sorry for wasting your time.
Thank you for an excellent product...and your patience.

OK this is good, this is why we had said to compile the Template.cpp file which is located in the /ACS_Source folder.
