Where are the additional dependencies defined in a C++ project in Visual Studio?

In my C++ project in Visual Studio, the linker's additional dependencies are defined as follows:

During build, I can see that this gets evaluated as:

16:22:12:977 29> AdditionalDependencies=system.lib;dexsys.lib;rpcrt4.lib;;C:\Development\workarea\vcpkg\installed\x86-windows\debug\lib\*.lib

Where and why does the build process fills in that directory structure in that `%(AdditionalDependencies)` value?

Thanks in advance
