    • Hi,
      
      Did you try running it as an Administrator?
      Or the files may be corrupt.
      
      Try to download and install again.
    • Hey,
      
      Try to open Properties for Annotator (right click) and select Configuration Properties --> General. Then set Platform Toolset to "Windows7.1SDK" (need to install Windows SDK 7.1 first).
      
      Good Luck
    • That's right.  It looks like a problem with running a command during build.

      Hilo\C++\Common\source\windowfactoryimpl.cpp:
      wcex.hCursor = nullptr; // If the class cursor is not null, the system restores the class cursor each time the mouse is moved. 
      
      Isn't this inefficient behavior ?
      If setting the cursor in registerclass is bad then where should you do it ?
      Or can you not prevent this behavior / issue ?
      
      Thank you for taking the time to answer.
