Hello everyone, I’m very new to game development with unreal engine and have only been using it for a couple of days, and since I started following a TwinStickShooter tutorial on UE youtube channel I’ve encountered an error while trying to package the project for Windows (64-bit) or launch the level of the project.
Here’s what I find in the log by typing “error” in the search:
LogWindows: Failed to load ‘…/…/…/Engine/Binaries/ThirdParty/libsndfile/Win64/libsndfile-1.dll’ (GetLastError=126)
MapCheck: Map check complete: 0 Error(s), 0 Warning(s), took 0,102ms to complete.

PackagingResults: Error: Unknown Error
I have no idea what could be a possible cause, I have visual studio 2017 and all necessary packages and plugins installed.
As for the attempt of launching the level:
LogPlayLevel: Setting up ProjectParams for D:\UnrealEngine\UE_4.22\Projects\Test\Test.uproject
LogPlayLevel: ********** STAGE COMMAND STARTED **********
LogPlayLevel: Error: ERROR: Stage Failed. Missing receipt ‘D:\UnrealEngine\UE_4.22\Projects\Test\Binaries\Win64\Test.target’. Check that this target has been built.

You may have to build the UE4 project with your IDE. Alternatively, build using UnrealBuildTool with the commandline:
As mentioned before I’m a complete beginner who only worked with software like cinema4d and maya before so I have no knowledge required to even guess a possible cause so any help will be appreciated, thanks in advance.
