Hi,
I build, on Windows 10, emacs version 25.1.50.1 (git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/emacs.git emacs-25) without problems, following the instructions on emacs/nt/INSTALL.W64. 
But, when I build versions emacs-25.0.94.tar.gz or emacs-25.0.95.tar.gz, the super and hyper keys do not work.
Is there something that I need to consider when building these .tar.gz versions? 
Thanks,
Levis

What do you mean by "super and hyper keys", and what do you mean by
"do not work"?

On w32 I had to put the following into .emacs to get expected behavior from

(setq w32-pass-lwindow-to-system nil
w32-pass-rwindow-to-system nil
w32-pass-apps-to-system nil
w32-lwindow-modifier 'super ;; Left Windows
w32-rwindow-modifier 'super ;; Right Windows
w32-apps-modifier 'hyper) ;; App-Menu (key to right of
Right Windows on 105 key board)

you might need w64 versions of this if you are building 64 bit emacs.

The variables' names are still the same in the 64-bit Windows builds.
They don't need any changes.
