Windows.h errors but I did not use it in code

I am creating thermal vision glasses and I always get the "<windows.h> fatal error library not found" even when I didn't use nor include it in the code --exact error message-

it will probably be something stupid that I missed

3

Can you post that file, please?

4

it said that I'm not allowed to post attachments because I'm a new user

5

how long do you need to be signed in to be able to post files

6

Can't you just cut and paste it in some code tags?

7

I'll try tomorrow

8 
type or paste code here
9

Isn't that the same code you already posted?

oh, I'm dumber than I thought

Post #9?

14

Use the Adafruit MLX90640 library instead.

thanks

this is probably the solution
