Answer 1

You're linking your project with only part of the C runtime (CRT) libary, msvcrtd.lib. You also need to link with the libraries vcruntimed.lib and ucrtd.lib. The former is part of Visual Studio 2015 itself while the later is part of the Windows 10 SDK that was installed along Visual Studio. Normally C++ projects automatically link with these libraries, but apparently your project is setup not to.

You may be following instructions meant for an older version of Visual Studio which only required linking with one CRT library file. This changed due to a refactoring of the CRT with Visual Studio 2015.
