title: Adding a .lib file to a project in Visual Studio 2015
body: <p>I have generated a <code>.lib</code> file from another project that I would like to use in my project. I have added the file to <em>Linker</em> → <em>Input</em> → <em>Additional dependencies</em> as <code>bluetoothserialport.lib</code>.</p>
  
  <p>I've added the lib file inside my project at this level: <a href="http://i65.tinypic.com/1t9fki.jpg" rel="noreferrer">http://i65.tinypic.com/1t9fki.jpg</a></p>
  
  <p>However I get the following error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>1>LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'bluetoothserialport.lib'</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I am using Windows 10 and C++.</p>
