[4.23.1, Shipping only] Missing precompiled manifest for 'DesktopPlatform'

Development Programming & Scripting C++
1

I’m writing a plugin that involves opening a file dialog via the DesktopPlatform module.

The plugin and game package fine for debuggame and development configuration, however when I package for shipping, the build fails with the following error message:

I am using the binary 4.23.1 version of the engine, and I assumed the DesktopPlatform module would be available for runtime plugins, am I mistaken?

It took some searching on the internet, but eventually I found out that Developer modules are not packaged with shipping builds due to EULA conditions.
I’ll have to make my own file dialog as an alternative now.

Maybe you can try ‘’shipping’‘ not “debug” or “development”, and I succeed.
