Sorry, I'm not sure what's going on. It should be skipping the Windows 10 SDK entirely because it doesn't know about the newer version.

Hah, ok moving further along, the first failure results from an incorrect path:

It tries to invoke "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\x86\rc.exe"
however that path does not exist:

C:\scm\wix3>where rc.exe
C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\10.0.16299.0\x86\rc.exe

Sorry guys, I have limited msbuild knowledge and have never worked with the platform SDK so I am unfamiliar with the conventions and tooling in that aspect.

Thanks for all the patience,
jlc
