Hi everybody, I have fork this project at here and make some changes to build it with VS 2019. Since @simonsteele will not continue this project, please feel free to apply PR to my fork. So we can keep PN alive. Thanks and enjoy it.

Why are you building it with VS 2019? Those builds won't run on Windows XP will they?

If you install the VS 2017 (MSVC - v14.1) build tools, with Windows XP support, then you should be able to make backward compatible builds while still being able to utilize newer C++ features...

Otherwise I'd recommend the good ol' MSVC 2010 tooling: Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 4 (ISO) (v7.1 - GRMSDKX_EN_DVD.iso).

Just my thoughts on maintaining backward compatibility, in lieu of jumping on Microsoft's obsolescence train unnecessarily. :smile:

@ssrlive, have you worked through any issues yet, and when will you provide a release?
