     45Likewise on WIndows 10,'' python setup.py docs  ''for some reason still needs a gcc compiler even though the main compile uses MSVC, type gcc to see if it is a recognised command, install mingw and make sure your path has e.g. ''!c:/mingw/bin''.

     47You may have to delete some old .so compiled files from [c:/users/yourusername/.sasmodels/compiled_models c:\users\yourusername\.sasmodels\compiled_models] if there is some 32 to 64 but muddle or change.

     96== [=#anchor1 Step 6 - try the new sasview 5 with qt gui] == 
    9697Sasview is being reworked, in the ESS_GUI git branch, to use PyQT 5.0 for the GUI. Please note that this branch uses '''exclusively Python 3'''. There is no need to install Anaconda again, because the environment YAML file (see below) will ensure that Python 3 is installed.

    123121On Windows, as of July 2018, you will need to install Build Tools for Visual Studio 2015. This is found under the 2017 label, confusingly: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/#build-tools-for-visual-studio-2017 Download the installer and run it. Find "Visual Studio Build Tools 2017" and click Install. In the window that appears, navigate to "Individual components" and ensure that "VC++ 2015.3 v14.00 (v140) toolset for desktop" and a relevant Windows SDK (e.g. Windows 10 SDK, if you are using Windows 10) are selected. Finally, click Install.

     125''If you then get a ''fatal error LNK1158: cannot run rc.exe'', then following some advice found on web, try copying files ''rc.exe'' and ''rcdll.exe ''from e.g. ''C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kit\10\bin\10.0.17763.0'' to ''Program files (x86)\Microsoft visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\x86_amd64 ''(which is the path to the MSVC compiler reported in gitbash window). Simply adding a path to the other directory did not work in this case.''

    127127''If run.py gives an error from line 1140 in readCategoryInfo, you likely have the old version of the categories file. Delete the file serial_cat.json from your user directory  ( c:/users/username/.sasview in Windows) and then run the latest *release* version of sasview. This will automatically generate the correct categories.json file.'' 
    128128 
    129 ''If qt5 sasview does not run the first time through, try going back to the normal sasview master (`git checkout master`), then repeat the steps above once more (trust me it may then work!). Piotr and others will be making this easier in the future.'' 
     129''If qt5 sasview does not run the first time through, try going back to the normal sasview master (`git checkout master`), then repeat the steps above once more (trust me it may then work!). Else, perhaps even better, force a complete rebuild by deleting the ''sasview\build ''directory''
