What is the exact error you are getting? And did it work with 2.063?

1.) it didn't find user32
2.) it worked with 2063 perfectly - used the zip files download, adaped the ini. that was under 8.0/visual 2012.

Please, I need to know exactly what happened. Run it from the command line, cut&paste the screen output.

Do you have this line in your sc.ini file?

LIB=%LIB%;"%WindowsSdkDir%\Lib\winv6.3\um\x64"

If you do a file search of C:\Program Files (x86) for User32.lib where do you find them?

Found the explanation:

http://lists.puremagic.com/pipermail/dmd-internals/2013-June/006569.html

The v2.063 was an aborted 'release'. 2.063.1 is what was released. (The compiler
& libraries are unchanged, what happened was the documentation was fixed.)

yes, except hat i replaced %WindowsSdkDir% with the path to that directory

Can you clarify exactly which version of Visual Studio 2013 you are using?

Can you also confirm that you can compile and link a C++ console app using your current installation of vs2013?

BTW, I have noticed that this version was compiled without -D=PULL93 so transition switch list again only has `tls`. Is there any specific reason to remove this switch after actual deprecation? It still can be very useful for porting D1 to D2 :)

It works under administrator? You probably got something virtualized. Can you find the dmd folder in VirtualStore in your profile?

The list of issues fixed were generated on October 20th, and that bug was not marked as fixed in bugzilla at the time. There's likely a set of additional bugs which are not listed in the changelog, but it's hard to both autogenerate these and then have to manually track which bugs were merged into the 2.064 branch. Everything is done ad-hoc, so you'll end up with this sort of problem.
