The lnkdep file is the output of a dependency-tracker that tries to figure out what libraries the linker is actually using.

Unfortunately it does not work with the 64-bit version of the MS linker. I think you might call it when using the D installer and allowing it to modify sc.ini.

Have you tried the "override linker settings in sc.ini" option (Tools->Option->Projects and Solutions->Visual D Settings->DMD directories->x64) to switch to the 32-bit linker?

If that does not help, you can disable "Monitoring OPTLINK dependencies" on the "Visual D settings" page.

"override linker settings in sc.ini" is checked and set to
"$(VCINSTALLDIR)\bin\link.exe" and I am still getting the same message.
But disabling "Monitoring OPTLINK dependencies" option worked.
Thanks.

I discovered a problem in the dependency tracker that didn't show up in earlier versions (or maybe some OS updates slightly changed calling order within undocumented behaviour).

I'll start the next beta cycle with a fix soon.

The latest version now uses the tracker from MSBuild instead of the filemonitor.dll. This should work better for all architectures.

Try it in https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/visuald/releases/tag/v0.3.40-beta4
