## Setting up Visual Studio

## Setup up Unix-like Shell

* Bug report is at https://github.com/Alexpux/MSYS2-packages/issues/735
* Switch to the shell `C:\msys64\msys2.exe` going forward.
* You can also load the shell with a batch file. This allows you to do some setup work, like run `vcvarsall.bat`, eg.
```batch
REM saved as shell-64.bat
@echo off
call "drive:\path\to\visual studio 15\VC\vcvarsall.bat" x64
REM or you can do:
REM call "drive:\path\to\visual studio 17\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat" x64
set _NO_DEBUG_HEAP=1
call C:\msys64\msys2_shell.cmd -mingw64 -use-full-path
exit
```
* Now you can make a system32 cmd line shortcut that will be used to launch the batch file. e.g.
* `target:` `%windir%\System32\cmd.exe /k drive:\path\to\shell-64.bat`
* `start in:` `drive:\some\path`

* Symlink `~/.private-files` to the root directory containing `dev/`.
* Symlink `~/.dev` to `~/.private-files/path/to/dev`.
* Symlink `~/.dotfiles` to `~/.dev/path/to/dotfiles`.
* Create `~/bin`.
* Symlink `$HOME/bin/sym` to `$HOME/.dotfiles/bin/symbolic-link`. You can now use this to
do symlinks.
* Symlink files in the dotfiles windows folder.
* Symlink appropriate files in the root dotfiles directory.
* Ignore all zsh files.
* Don't symlink .vim folder because Plugged will fail to install the plugins. Just make a copy.
* Setup private dotfiles. Once done, you should now have `~/bin` and `~/.dotfiles/bin` in your path.

### Spotify
* If you install an older version then you'll need to block the auto updater:
* Go to `%APPDATA%\Spotify` and create `Spotify_new.exe` and `Spotify_new.exe.sig`
* Set both as read-only. I did this by denying all permissions to the active user account.
* Spotify caches song data in `C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Spotify\Data` and this path cannot be
modified within the app settings. This is an issue if your main drive is an SSD, as you want to
limit the amount of writes to it and you may not have a lot of free space. The simplest way I
