# microsoft/setup-msbuild
You know how handy that 'Visual Studio Developer Command Prompt' is on your local machine? And how it adds several things to `PATH` to allow you to just issue commands like `msbuild` or otherwise? Use this action to setup similar flexibility in your Windows-based GitHub Actions runners. This will let you discover where those tool paths are and automatically add them to the `PATH` environment variables for you so future steps in your Actions workflow can just initiate commands without knowing the full path.
