[LLVMdev] Windows Installer

[Eric Mader]

Hi Hans,

I think installer.bat found my visual Studio installation because it 
installed the Win32 toolsets but not the x64 ones. (It took me a while 
to work this out ;-) I installed the x64 toolsets by hand and they seem 
to work.

I think the installer ran as administrator. I explicitly ran it that way 
again (asking it to uninstall first) just to be sure. It didn't seem to 
make any difference. IIRC, it did pop up the UAC when it ran.

Regards,
Eric
