Win 10 SDK

Question
-
Trying to download win 10 SDK, when running the download system says "access denied". I was told that the Visual Studio 2017 system was available free and I need the win10 SDK to compile C programs. I tried to get help from Microsoft and they said I had to pay? Doesn't sound free to me! If I cannot download the SDK, cannot compile and execute the program, any ideas?

Hi Dave: Very confusing, I went to the SDK site as you suggested, downloaded the ISO file, got on my computer, accessed it and it said Windows SDK installer. When I activated, still get the error, access denied. Must be doing something wrong as I cannot seem to load the SDK, Help!Tuesday, June 26, 2018 3:31 PM
