## Description
The Windows version provided in the [`v0.4.15` release](https://github.com/ethereum/solidity/releases/tag/v0.4.15) is a nightly build.
```
C:\> solc --version
solc, the solidity compiler commandline interface
Version: 0.4.15-nightly.2017.8.10+commit.8b45bddb.Windows.msvc
```
I encountered this in the py-solc-x CI when a [Windows job failed](https://github.com/iamdefinitelyahuman/py-solc-x/runs/919482229?check_suite_focus=true) after I added an additional check to verify the solc version after installing. I have confirmed it locally in a virtual machine.
## Environment
- Compiler version: `0.4.15`
- Operating system: Windows 10 (VirtualBox)
