5.6 create project error 14.36.32532 C++ toolchain for VisualStudio2022 x64 both with and without

If I have it installed, it gives me an error with it saying please install 14.38 (already installed) without it it gives me an error that a valid 14.36 build chain can’t be found.

Not finding anything on the forums (here or reddit) thus far. Any suggestions whatsoever appreciated.

SOLUTION:

Removed both 14.36 and 14.38, deleted folders for both, rebooted, reinstalled 14.36, rebooted, attempted to create 5.6 C++ project again expecting it to fail, and it did fail to compile, but it created all the C++ project files.
Then went back and added 14.38, opened new project, rebuild successful.

Okay, that was a false success lol. It would rebuild, but no binaries, and build failed quick.

So THEN I had to go to C:\Users\ravenmikal\AppData\Roaming\Unreal Engine\UnrealBuildTool\BuildConfiguration.xml

These two lines were showing “14.36.32532” so I updated them, tried to build it from scratch again, and THIS time it worked.

14.38.33130

14.38.33130
