**Problem:**
Link to web.archive.org is currently used to download vs2010, since original download link for vs2010 from Microsoft is dead. Even though it usually works, download from web.archive.org fails from time to time, causing windows x86 build failures in github CI.
**Fix:**
Switch to more reliable download link for vs2010. Use download link used by winetricks project instead. (As they also switched away from web.archive.org link, when they faced the same problem in the past. [1]) Test code already does fingerprint check of downloaded file, so changing download link should be safe.
