This looks pretty broken, you should not try to link ARM libraries.

The VS2015 default for x64 is:

$(VCINSTALLDIR)lib\amd64
$(UCRTSdkDir)Lib\$(UCRTVersion)\ucrt\x64

and for Win32-COFF:

$(VCINSTALLDIR)lib
$(UCRTSdkDir)Lib\$(UCRTVersion)\ucrt\x86

Starting with VS2015, the VC runtime requires the universal runtime (UCRT).

You can see the resulting paths in the build logs in the output
directory. The are passed to the linker with the /LIBPATH option.
