I assume you followed the instructions in our Wiki:
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Step_by_step#Windows_7.2C_Windows_8.1.2C_Windows_10

As I learned today "Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET
Framework 3.5. SP1" is no longer supported or downloadable.
This is a major issue that has to be addressed (and the Wiki should be
updated).

But to get you started, I can send you a direct link to a copy in my
Dropbox?

Personally I am building on Windows 10 (64-bit) on VirtualBox. You can
find all my personal builds here:

Kind regards,
