Issue/Introduction

The build tool is not able to successfully link a client. I have verified the externals exists in the externc.lib I was looking at the profile to ensure it is looking in the correct place. All seems correct: Error output:

Resolution

These __imp__*** unresolved symbols are part of the user32.lib and needs to be added to your external library list. This list is set by token loc.EXTERNAL_LIB which you will find in the Build Tool Profile Manager under section 'C' of the Profile Tree. The path will probably be something like C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1A\Lib\user32.lib.
