The Microsoft compilers only target Windows.

If you want to compile your code to target Linux then this is easiest done with a Linux machine and its typical toolchain.

I agree with ChrisW67. I tried to build a cross-compiler toolchain that runs on Windows to produce linux binaries and gave up after several weeks of effort. It's easier to just install VirtualBox on your Windows machine, create a linux virtual machine, and build the project in that.
