This downloads standalone MSVC compiler, linker & other tools, also headers/libraries from Windows SDK into portable folder, without installing Visual Studio. Has bare minimum components - no UWP/Store/WindowsRT stuff, just files & tools for native desktop app development.

Run py.exe portable-msvc.py and it will download output into msvc folder. By default it will download latest available MSVC & Windows SDK from newest Visual Studio.

You can list available versions with py.exe portable-msvc.py --show-versions and then pass versions you want with --msvc-version and --sdk-version arguments.

To use cl.exe/link.exe first run setup_TARGET.bat - after that PATH/INCLUDE/LIB env variables will be updated to use all the tools as usual. You can also use clang-cl.exe with these includes & libraries.

To use clang-cl.exe without running setup.bat, pass extra /winsysroot msvc argument (msvc is folder name where output is stored).

;What does this script do?
;It's a workaround for broken G910  Logitech keyboards (possibly other keyboards too) whereby some keys occasionally register multiple keystrokes for one kkkkkeypress.
;The key bug appears because keyboard registers multiple keystrokes in a very short timespan even though you pressed the key only once. 
;This script makes it so the subsequent keystrokes registered in a very short timespan are ignored thus outputing the key only for the first stroke.

;List all your broken keys between quotes below. I.e. if your broken keys are g and f then the line below shoud be 
;brokenKeys := "gf"
brokenKeys := "gf"
