Dub or Dmd dies when it can't find the linker.  Like so:

C:\Users\kheaser\Git\Delivery\projects\00_01_print_ogl_ver>dub 
run --arch=x86_64 --force
Performing "debug" build using dmd for x86_64.

C:\Users\kheaser\OneDrive for 
Business\GitHub\Delivery\projects\00_01_print_ogl_ver>where 
link.exe
C:\D\dmd2\windows\bin\link.exe

First off, I have no idea why dub (or dmd) is trying to use the 
path C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\VC\\bin\x86_amd64\ to find 
link.exe?

I did the where command link.exe to show that the linker is in my 
PATH at C:\D\dmd2\windows\bin\.

So can I specify the linker path explicitly and if so, how is 
that done?

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I've looked at the 
documentation all morning and not finding anything.  Thanks.
