How to set the default Windows kit (SDK) version?
<p>I used to use Windows 8.1 SDK for my C++ application, and everything's working fine. Today I installed the Windows 10 SDK and I can't find a way to make it the default one. </p>

<p>I can hard-code the new SDK path in the Visual Studio project settings, but that is highly undesirable. I want the new kit to be used by default for every new project.
There's no environment variable for the SDK, and I can't find anything in the registry, either.<br>
More precisely, there are Windows SDK entries in the registry, but what I need - the C++ includes and libraries - is called the Windows <em>Kit</em> (located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits).</p>
