error #10037 unable to find 'ar.exe'

Hello,

I am trying to compile the GFX_Samples project @ (<install-dir>/samples_2016/<locale>/compiler_c/psxe/gfx_samples).  Using Visual Studio 2013, Intel Parallel Studio EX 2016 Update 2 Cluster Edition.  I've installed every option and I am still seeing this error message on every project in the sample package...

Error    1    error #10037: could not find 'ar.exe'        nbody
Error    2    error #10037: could not find 'ar.exe'        MatmultSLM
Error    3    error #10037: could not find 'ar.exe'        crossfade
Error    4    error #10037: could not find 'ar.exe'        matmult
Error    5    error #10037: could not find 'ar.exe'        histogramlocals
Error    6    error #10037: could not find 'ar.exe'        testgfxvector
Error    7    error #10037: could not find 'ar.exe'        convolution

 I'm not sure where to go from here.

Thank You
