Visual C++ and editbin installation

Hi there,

We have a post build step in Visual studio that uses the editbin tool commonly installed with a Visual Studio Installation (C++).
The tool is in general installed under (for VS 2015)
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin

However this is not available with the current VS setup installed on build machines. Do you install C++ tools with the default image?

Bests,

    Here is a response I got on build VM when running dir /s EDITBIN.EXE in C:\ folder. Looks like you have a lot of choice ;)

    Hi Ilya,

    That's awesome. I gues the path is not in the "PATH" but I can leave with
    that :)
    Cheers,
    Michael
