Development Programming & Scripting C++

First enviroment I’m running latest Win11 Pro with both VS2022 and VS2019 installed, i notice it defaulted to vs2022 when opening project file tho could be due to system associations.

Go to make a new project if I select C++ it says:

The project could not be compiled. Would you like to open it in Visual Studio?

well solved my own issue, good thing to given no replies but incase anyone else gets this, turns out it must have been a corrupted installation despite no warning or error messages of any kind during it, I tried adding more options to Visual studio but got same error, did nothing, then I simply tried to verify the files for UE5 and that fixed it.

Hello There, sorry i’m new to UE5 and have no idea what does to mean to “verify” or “Generate” at all… Could you please explain them or recommend me a way to understand them (a tutorial or something like that would be appretaited!)

Using bundled DotNet SDK version: 6.0.302
Running UnrealBuildTool: dotnet “…..\Engine\Binaries\DotNET\UnrealBuildTool\UnrealBuildTool.dll” Development Win64 -Project=“C:/Users/Anbara/Documents/Unreal Projects/MyProject2/MyProject2.uproject” -TargetType=Editor -Progress -NoEngineChanges -NoHotReloadFromIDE
Log file: C:\Users\Anbara\AppData\Local\UnrealBuildTool\Log.txt
Creating makefile for MyProject2Editor (no existing makefile)
Expecting to find a type to be declared in a module rules named ‘MetaHumanProjectUtilities’ in UE5Rules, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null. This type must derive from the ‘ModuleRules’ type defined by Unreal Build Tool.

It’s my first time using UE. I’m trying to create my first project following a course on Game development with Unreal and C++ on coursera. I have VS 2022 community. Help would be greatly appreciated!

After compile errors when it said to open in Visual Studio? if yes then how you generated files? Please elaborate…
