Hi SWinxy,
For not finding JDK, I recommend you set the %JAVA_HOME% environment
variable to your latest Java installation. For VS, configure looks for the
path and tries to fixpath, so you should be good mostly if you set the
short names (just need no spaces) for "Windows Kits" and "Microsoft Visual
Studio" in "Program Files" (usually already "PROGRA~1").

And indeed, for the "Windows Kits" one, the log Anil got was extremely
unhelpful too :( Hope these can help.
