Today I gave in and updated Visual Studio, only for the problem with Automation to appear for me as well. Right now I’m using Unreal Engine 5.3.2.
Instead of updating the code for the engine, I do suggest to simply rollback to a previous version of Visual Studio if the new version isn’t absolutely needed. It is way easier and takes less time.
That is if you don’t already are using a modified version of the engine, then just add the modifications to fix the problem.
Don’t get me wrong, it is a pain to fix issues like this, but how much are you paying Epic to use this engine? Oh that is right, nothing (well unless you make $1.000.000, but at that time you should buy their support package). If you want stuff like this to be fixed with the help of their team, you have the option to pay for their support. Also no one is forcing you to use this game engine. So until you are playing them, try to keep this kind of comments to yourself, and actually post stuff to help the community.
