Couldn’t find target rules file for target ‘ProjectEditor’ in rules assembly ‘UE5Rules, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null’

Location: /Volumes/Seagate/UnrealEngine/UE_5.6/Engine/Intermediate/Build/BuildRules/UE5Rules.dll

I actually don’t understand this error anymore!!! I rebuild the project I updated the .uproject file. I checked that the target file is at the correct location and has the right code. Please help
