IIRC VS2015 could build for XP if some extension was installed: it
produced an execuable that could run with the VS2013 library.  

I'm pretty sure VS2017 and later don't support XP at all.

VS2013 will work for XP assuming that the code doesn't require any
functions that are only in later systems.  Maybe someone has a copy
that they can donate?
