>Needless to say if Intel supplied a licensed compiler on Windows for developers who would be willing to test it with their Boost library(s) that would help solve problems which you are reporting. Whereas reporting problems with Intel C++ 17.0 on Windows, when it would ne too costly for Boost library developers to buy a license just to test the compiler, is not likely to lead to a solution without the developer being able to use the actual product.

Good point, I see that a Linux license is available here: https://software.intel.com/en-us/qualify-for-free-software/opensourcecontributor but there is no Windows license for open source work.  I will follow up internally.
