The Platform env. variable is set by vcvarsall.bat which is what's actually
run to make a Command Prompt a "Visual Studio Command Prompt.  Setting it
manually is NOT the correct thing to do.  It appears that there's still
something wrong in your environment, as I noted on the Ask question you
linked where the OP had a similar issue for reasons that were never
resolved as they failed to respond.
