WINDOWS NASM - Why is LD.exe now LDRDF.exe?

[bubbaboy789]

So, I want to compile this window I got help with (tutorial link at end of post) but I couldnt compile it as it said "'ld' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." so I went to explorer to figure it out. I saw that LD.exe had become LDRDF.exe and wanted to know why. Please send help ASAP

Unless things have changed recently, ld.exe and ldrdf.exe are not part of nasm, they are linkers provided by someone else.

Here is the link to a free online reference for the linker file programs in the subject.
