I don't see anything that says "Windows XP Support for C++".
I don't have that 10.0.10586.0 directory.

"Tools -> Extensions and Updates" shows what I have installed. Not any 
new things I may want.
I started up the installer hoping there was an "XP blah" setting in 
that, no.

The installation is ok.  I can build previous versions of povray, like 
this 2017-02-12 version I had laying around that calls itself
3.7.2-alpha.unofficial+msvc14.win32

This is VS2015 Community Edition.
