I have been using 5.2 for about a month now and have been compiling several projects successfully. Then all of a sudden I have been getting this error on every cpp project:

```auto
Expecting to find a type to be declared in a module rules named 'MetaHumanProjectUtilities' in UE5Rules, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null. This type must derive from the 'ModuleRules' type defined by Unreal Build Tool.

```

The only thing I can think of that changed recently was an update to quixel bridge, but I am not even using it in any of my projects so maybe completely unrelated.

I am not using metahuman either despite MetaHumanProjectUtilities being called out in the error.

Furthermore, it does not seem to be able to find CoreMinimal.h:

but that file certainly still exists:

this appears to be the same issue as here:

> Hello all, I’m pretty new to Unreal and suddenly I’m getting the following error when I try to compile my projects: I really don’t know what this “Expecting to find a type to be declared in a module rules named ‘MetaHumanProjectUtilities’ …” refers to, especially since none of my projects are using MetaHumans. I’m working with Unreal Engine 5.2, and everything was compiling fine in my various projects yesterday . I did install an update for Quixel Bridge today, which seems like a po…

Removing quixel bridge, indeed, allows me to compile again.

Marking as solved for now, though I’d like to see the quixel bridge plugin updated to really solve this issue.
