linking lib files c++ VS - evlmonster - Sep 1, 2020

Hey guys ive recently got back into coding after 5 years. Im working with the crypto++ 8.2 library for c++. Im currently running Visual Studios 17 c++. I was able to download the project and create a lib file. Then i went and added the link on the my new project but every time i try to compile the program it tells me it cant find the header files im linking to. According the Microsofts support page i linked it correctly. I just need to figure out how to link it correctly if its even compatible or should i go with VS c++ 19?



The guide i originally followed

Thank you, ended up getting it to work but it required an extra step for vs 17.
