Error when creating c++ project in Unreal Engine 5.2.0

Development Programming & Scripting C++

I am new to game development and Unreal Engine. I have Unreal Engine 5.2.0 and Visual Studio 2022 installed.

When I try to create a c++ project with default settings, it says “This project could not be compiled. Would you like to open it in visual studio?” and gives me this error:

Using bundled DotNet SDK version: 6.0.302

How do I fix this?

Hi, I think the log Install a version of .NET Framework SDK at 4.6.0 or higher hints you to install the newest .NET framework SDK in the visual studio installer.
