REM Locate the Visual Studio install rather than hardcoding a version/edition,
REM so this keeps working as GitHub bumps the runner image (e.g. VS2022 -> VS2026).
REM The GitHub runner images put vswhere on PATH. If that ever stops being true,
REM it's installed by the VS Installer at a fixed location:
REM "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer\vswhere.exe"
for /f "usebackq tokens=*" %%i in (`vswhere -latest -products * -property installationPath`) do set VSINSTALL=%%i
if not defined VSINSTALL (
echo Could not locate a Visual Studio installation via vswhere
