Microsoft made a change that may require additional link options (cf. Microsoft Developer Community post __imp___std_init_once_complete unresolved external symbol after linking msvcprtd.lib).

For example, building a sample (e.g. authoring_samples.sln) with the authoring library (i.e. sc.lib) in release mode produces

unresolved external symbol __imp___std_init_once_begin_initialize
unresolved external symbol __imp___std_init_once_complete
