### Generating a MSVS Artifacts Archive yourself
After installing [Microsoft's development tools](https://github.com/Alex313031/Thorium/blob/main/docs/BUILDING_WIN.md#visual-studio),
you can package your Windows SDK installation into a zip file by running the following on a Windows machine in cmd.exe:
```shell
cd path/to/depot_tools/win_toolchain
python3 package_from_installed.py <vs version> -w <win version>
```
Where "path/to/depot_tools/win_toolchain" would usually be *C:\src\depot_tools\win_toolchain* and
where `<vs version>` and `<win version>` correspond respectively to the
versions of Visual Studio (e.g. 2019) and of the Windows SDK (e.g.
10.0.20348.0) installed on the Windows machine. Note that if you didn't
install the ARM64 components of the SDK as noted in the link above, you
should add `--noarm` to the parameter list.
__NOTE__: The -w flag takes the raw internal version of the SDK, not the actual patch version. This caused me and I'm sure
other people some confusion. So for example, the latest version of the Win 10 SDK is 10.1.20348.1, but its internal version doesn't change from
when it was released, and this is what you would use, e.g. 10.0.20348.0
These commands create a zip file named `<hash value>.zip`, which can be used with the instructions above ^.
## Building
Follow [Setting up the build](https://github.com/Alex313031/Thorium/blob/main/docs/BUILDING.md#setting-up-the-build), except instead of using the `args.gn` from the
root of the Thorium repo, use the [`win_args.gn`](https://github.com/Alex313031/Thorium/blob/main/infra/win_args.gn), from *~/Thorium/infra/*
