I am getting the following error upon compiling UE 5:

I don’t know what Headless Chaos Perf is and I don’t know what Intel ISPC is and why its looking for a location that doesn’t exist on a drive that doesn’t exist.
I’m building with the following command: msbuild UE5.sln -p:Platform=Win64 -p:Configuration="Development Editor" -m:4 to conserve resources so I don’t need to run the IDE cause my system is not that beefy.
tl;dr:
I do not have an F: drive so ISPC of course isn’t found! I didn’t know I needed ISPC either.
There should be a more logical error message like:
“ISPC not found! Please set a path to the ISPC in file X or though the project properties in Visual Studio.” with some more information given on how to find where you include the files.
