I just worked on reproducing this in a Windows VM. I had trouble getting the vcpkg dependencies to install with Visual Studio 2019, so I upgraded to Visual Studio 2022. With that version I was not able to reproduce the linking error.

🕵️‍♂️ FYI this is affecting all the windows physics jobs in the buildfarm are affected by this issue.

Also this issue seems to come with a "time regression", most of the builds with this error are taking an extra hour to build/fail.
