Following the win32/64 step-by-step guide, I am able to compile successfully. but I am unable to package the program into an installer.
this first command runs without error:
msbuild /m /p:Configuration=RelWithDebInfo nsis_package_prep.vcxproj
on second command nsis fails saying the user-guide.chm file is missing
msbuild /m /p:Configuration=RelWithDebInfo nsis_package.vcxproj
