 The file `build.bat` exists for convenience. If you want more control, you can specify the following cmake options.
 
-##### Output folder of dll
-
-Use `cmake --preset RelWithDebInfo -D OPEN_SHC_DLL_DEST=.\build-RelWithDebInfo\dll` to specify the destination folder for the .dll and .pdb files in favor of the default.
-
-Note this setting will remain present even if you remove the `-D` option later from the command. To actually clear this configuration, use `cmake --preset RelWithDebInfo --fresh`.

+Build using `cmake --build --preset RelWithDebInfo --target OpenSHC.dll.deploy` will prepare the modules folder in the UCP setup of the bound SHC.
