I run CMake using cmake .. in order to make it output all the generated files in a different directory. This runs fine on Ubuntu, but breaks on Windows 10 when I try to run it. Running cmake . from the root project directory seems to work fine on both platforms. The output of cmake .. on Windows is:

PS D:Developmentcpphello-vulkanbuild> cmake ..

-- Selecting Windows SDK version 10.0.16299.0 to target Windows 10.0.17134.

-- The C compiler identification is unknown

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:3 (project):

  No CMAKE_C_COMPILER could be found.

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:3 (project):

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

The CMakeLists.txt is specified here:

include(${CMAKE_ROOT}/Modules/ExternalProject.cmake)

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.10)

project(hello_vulkan)



# Download and setup GLFW

set(GLFW_DIR        ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/lib/glfw)

set(GLFW_BINARY_DIR ${GLFW_DIR}/bin)

ExternalProject_Add(

    glfw

    PREFIX         ${GLFW_DIR}

    CMAKE_ARGS     -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=${GLFW_BINARY_DIR}

)



# Link Vulkan and GLFW

set(VULKAN_DIR      ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/lib/vulkan)

include_directories(${VULKAN_DIR}/include)

link_directories(

    ${VULKAN_DIR}/lib

    ${GLFW_BINARY_DIR}

)



# Setup project

set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD             17)

set(CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin)

set(EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH         ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/build/)

set(SOURCES                        source/main.cpp)



add_executable(hello_vulkan ${SOURCES})

add_dependencies(hello_vulkan glfw)

Any ideas what to do for it to work when running from a different directory on Windows?

Edit:
Here is the output from cmake .. on Ubuntu:
