Can one install Windows SDK from NuGet?
Is there some reason this has not already been done?

Chocolatey seems to say yes to this:
choco install windows-sdk-8.1

Cannot install libc6-devel-i386 on windows

How to install the package on windows? I have seen a lot of Ubuntu guides but don't know how to install for windows
You need libc6 header files from this library to include with your c++ programs that is not OS specific.

Is there an OpenSSL for windows?

I'm trying to generate OpenSSL certificates on Windows OS. But I find most of the commands related to OpenSSL are for *nix OS.
Is there an OpenSSL for Windows OS? If yes, from where can I get it? Is this official OpenSSL build for Windows?
Search openssl shining light production in google and download from the first link
Yes. You can do one of two things:
1) Build it yourself
You'll need a build environment (either Visual Studio or msys2 based), and a few other pre-requisites. Download the source from here:
https://www.openssl.org/source/
And (assuming you downloaded the 1.1.0 version), read the INSTALL notes here:
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/OpenSSL_1_1_0-stable/INSTALL
There are also some Windows specific notes here:
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/OpenSSL_1_1_0-stable/NOTES.WIN
2) Download a pre-compiled version
The OpenSSL project doesn't distribute pre-compiled binaries, but they do maintain a list of third-party provided binaries. The list is here:
https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries
If you're using Chocolatey, you can also install with
choco install openssl
More details in here and for me it also installed some other stuff, like VC Redist:
Installed:
- kb2919355 v1.0.20160915
- kb3033929 v1.0.5
- kb2999226 v1.0.20181019
- openssl v1.1.1.1900
- vcredist2015 v14.0.24215.20170201
- kb2919442 v1.0.20160915
- vcredist140 v14.34.31931
- kb3035131 v1.0.3
- chocolatey-windowsupdate.extension v1.0.5
Packages requiring reboot:
- vcredist140 (exit code 3010)
This was done on Windows 10.
Both Cygwin and MSYS distribute pre-compiled openssl binaries, which I use everyday.
If you don't like a *nix like style, please refer this official page for standalone distrbutions.
https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries
Disclaim: I have not tested the software listed on the page.
I am using this version https://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html and install it with
Essentials
winget install -e ShiningLight.OpenSSL.Light

How to install YASM on Windows 10?

I need YASM software in Windows 10 in Microsoft visual 2015 could any one tell the steps for installing yasm.
I already uses the below link.
https://github.com/yasm/yasm/tree/master/Mkfiles
with the help of source code I am not able to install yasm i got lots of errors in it.
I read somewhere that Windows users are advised to install yasm via Chocolatey
First, you need to install chocolately and after that you just need to run the following command:
choco install yasm
So, You just need to run only two commands one for chocolately installation and another one for yasm. :)

Installing PyQt5 Designer on windows

I installed PyQt5 using Windows command window and pip3 install PyQt5 as described in the download page, it was installed successfully. but I didn't found PyQt Designer in the Windows Start Menu so I thought I need to install it separately. After searching various forums, I tried adding it using pip3 install pyqt5-tools it shows Successfully installed pyqt5-tools-5.9.0.1.2 but PyQt Designer wasn't installed.
Is there any way to install PyQt Designer?
My Python version:
>>> python --version
Python 3.5.2 :: Anaconda custom (64-bit)
On windows 10, with Python3.5, and pyqt5, I installed pyqt5-tools using pip:
pip install pyqt5-tools
and the designer was automatically install in the following folder:
"Python directory"\Python35\Lib\site-packages\pyqt5-tools
try this:
pip install pyqt5
pip install pyqt5-tools
Now you'd find the designer in site-packages/pyqt5-tools.
Lib\site-packages\qt5_applications\Qt\bin
I think I found a workaround, first I uninstalled PyQt5 and pyqt5-tools-5.9.0.1.2
pip3 uninstall PyQt5
pip3 uninstall pyqt5-tools-5.9.0.1.2
I went to this page, downloaded the PyQt5-5.6-gpl-Py3.5-Qt5.6.0-x64-2.exe file and installed it normally.
In most cases, due to updates of the packages or some other reasons, "designer tool" will not be in the default location.
If so, you can find it here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Python37-32\Lib\site-packages\pyqt5_tools\Qt\bin
try
pip install PyQt5Designer It will then be under lib/QtDesigner/designer.exe
this is might be not much helpful but i just wanted to share, I install pyqt5 using pip with the tools as well and couldn't find PyQt Designer in the Windows Start as well coz I searched "pyqt designer". I could find it when i searched "designer" only.
pip install pyqt5-tools
....\venv\Lib\site-packages\qt5_applications\Qt\bin

Uninstall phonegap from windows 7

can anyone tell me the proper way to uninstall phonegap 2.9.1 from windows 7. can't find it in any of my uninstaller program. i don't think just deleting the folder is the proper way.
Thanks
Assuming you installed with node.js, then you simply go
npm uninstall phonegap
to remove the local package or
npm uninstall --global phonegap
to remove the global install
