I've downloaded Segger simulation of emWin but it won't compile on my Visual Studio 2015 Express. The following linker problems occurred:

As Visual Studio had to "Retarget the solution", I wanted to know what has to be done as it converted the project (wrongly) from Visual Studio C++ v6.0 (quite old).
After contacting Segger support, they told me that on v5.40 they included a HowTo about updating the project to MSVC 2015 / 2017:
Make sure the selected Windows SDK is installed:
Properties -> Configuration Properties -> General -> Windows SDK Version.
1. Right-Click on the Project (e.g. SimulationTrial) -> Properties
2 Set Configuration to "All Configurations"
3. Goto Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Input.
4. Add under Additional Dependencies: "legacy_stdio_definitions.lib"
5. Set Ignore All Default Libraries: "No"
6. Set Ignore Specific Default Libraries: "LIBC.lib;LIBCMTD.lib"
7. Goto Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Advanced
8. Set Image Has Safe Exception Handlers:"No (/SAFESEH:NO)"
9. Click "OK"-Button.
It worked for me as expected!
