Error when starting out Setup.bat to download additional Engine dependencies to open project.

I have .NET 8.0 installed, pretty much everything up to date, can’t figure out why I get this error when I have everything required.

Checking dependencies...
Unhandled exception. System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Security.Cryptography, Version=8.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'. The system cannot find the file specified.

Thanks for any help and input to that!

An environment variable %DOTNET_ROOT% is required to set to the correct path like C:\Program Files\dotnet
