It sounds like we have to execute the VSVARSALL.BAT script to (temporarily) set the VSINSTALLDIR environment variable. I don't see how executing this script as part of our build process is any better than coding the path to the required Visual Studio installation.

We could certainly manually create a VSINSTALLDIR environment variable, but I'm not sure what problem we are solving by doing so.

Can you be specific about the issue you are actually having?

* Are you trying to build with something besides VS3013?
* Did you install VS2013 in an unusual location and are having a problem? If so, what errors are you seeing?

I work with several other Windows developers, who had no problem with this change. Please provide specific error messages and build logs so we can deal with the actual problem you are encountering.
