If it's not there this means that the preprocess has failed. You must have ldc2 visible in the PATH variable. For now I can only advice you tobuild libdexed-d.dll manually to see what the problem is. in the repository, sub folder dexed-d, try $ dub.exe --compiler=ldc2 and tells me what's happening. dexed-d.dll should be created in the same folder as dexed.exe. TBH I don't know if Windows is still supported. As a user I have totally dropped this system, since I didn't use it since years but only to build dexed.Despite of the mini drama last year I've continued developping dexed.

Only thing is that a msvc140.dll might be necessary, but this is not a dexed problem. In this case people can just get it from the official microsoft website.
