Hi,

I can investigate but if it's just a vm how about upgrading.
Regarding Windows 7 it's eol and we cant practically support it.
To rebuild kshimgen  call craft -i --no-cache kshimgen and then reinstall cmake etc.

After a longer break without updating the craft root I'd also recommend to start \
fresh.

If it's a dependency issue you could investigate by using dependenciesgui on a \
generated Shim wich is installed by the dependencies blueprint.

Cheers,
Hannah
