Windowsdefender.h LNK2001 Error on Compile Using Visual Studio 2022 Community Edition
I work on doing small projects with C++, trying to build things using just C++ without C#, .Net and other tools. While doing this, I ran into a problem with building around windowsdefender.h. What I tried to do was more or less this:
#include <Windows.h>
#include <tchar.h>
#include <WindowsDefender.h>
int main()
{
BOOL result;
HRESULT output;
output = WDStatus(&result);
return 0;
}
The program only extract the status information, but it does not compile. I get a link error.
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _WDStatus@4
Looking around university as well as google lead me to belive that I need to manualy add a lib file or direction for the linker. One that contain the code it needs for windowsdefender.h to work. But... I am stumped. Been looking around and can not for the life of me find the information I need to do this. Is there a kind soul out there that know what I need to do to fix this?
I got dyslexia and my spell aid is failing me. So I am sorry for any issues in the above text!
