PuTTY compile with VS2015 - flat style

I'm fixing a few things in the current SNAPSHOT version of Putty but I'm getting slightly another putty (design) than Simon Tatham does.

Please have a look to the following Screenshot. First my own compiled PuTTY.exe (acutally the change was the window size - I need it broader...) Second the original one.

enter image description here

My version has the "old-fashioned" XP-Style 3D-Effects, while the original variant already takes care of the new "flatstlye"-Window-Style.

I was looking for any property I can set or anything I can configure in Visual Studio, but unfortunately I wasn't able to find anything.

Thanks in advance for any reply!

P.S.: Trying to run perl mkfiles.py it generates no Makefile.cyg using Windows 10 and cygwin/cygwin64 for me. Maybe using another compiler would work in the end....

It seems that you didn't add a manifest to your project.

See windows\putty.mft in PuTTY repository.
