So, again strictly following the HowToBuild file, I opened an x86 Native Tools Command Prompt, navigated to build.win32x86\squeak.cog.spur\, executed ..\common\SETPATH.BAT and finally ..\common\MAKEDEBUG.BAT. Now guess what type LOGD will give me?

Did you install an SDK?  I’m pretty sure that’s where the Windows.h headers live.  Instal a 10.x SDK if you haven’t already.
