Building UE From source

This post helped me to solve this error:
[Solved]UE5 5.0 GitHub Source Build Error: C2766, MSB3073 - Programming & Scripting / C++ - Epic Developer Community Forums (unrealengine.com)

Updated steps for building 5.3.2 tag with Visual Studio 2022:

  1. In Visual Studio Installer, Modify Visual Studio 2022 to add (if any missing) the following under Individual Components tab:
  • MSVC v143 - VS 2022 C++ ARM build tools (Latest)
  • MSVC v143 - VS 2022 C++ ARM Spectre-mitigated libs (Latest)
  • MSVC v143 - VS 2022 C++ x64/x86 build tools (Latest)
  • MSVC v143 - VS 2022 C++ x64/x86 ARM Spectre-mitigated libs (Latest)

Note: Even though my machine is x64/x86, I enabled ARM tools as well.

  1. Move the source code base folder UnrealEngine to "C:".

  2. Open UE5.sln and in the solution explorer, right click the project UE5 and do “Rebuild”.

Then the whole build is successfull!
