I tried to run the very first program casey made, include wibdows.h and winmain, but when i cled it i got one of two messages. The first one is couldn't find windos.h, the second is cannot open kernel32.lib. I think i am missing something, but i don't know what. Can somebody help me?

Are you using Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition to compile, or something else?

I'm using 2013 ultimate

Then you should be fine. Have you run shell.bat file?
Can you show output of following command: "echo %INCLUDE%" ?

(also, are you running vcvarsall.bat?)

Thanks for the help, i didn't know that when installing the vs2013, my system admins didn't care it didn't install the windows sdk. after i installed it, it worked fine. It's so frustrating.
