To compile you need latest Visual Studio 2022. Free Community edition works.

Open vs2022/SumatraPDF.sln and hit F5 to compile and run.

For best results use the latest release available as that's what I use and test with. If things don't compile, first make sure you're using the latest version of Visual Studio.

Here's more developer information.

In Visual Studio, this is in Debugging, Environment section.

Note:

• as of VS 16.6.2 ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=1 (i.e. memory leaks) doesn't work. Unix version relies on tcmalloc so this might never work Suppressing issues: https://clang.llvm.org/docs/AddressSanitizer.html#issue-suppression Note: I couldn't get suppressing to work.
