Title: UE 5.4.4 - Missing EpicGames.Horde.dll

I’m working on UE 5.4.4 with Visual Studio 2022 (v17.12.3) and encountering the following error while rebuilding a new blank C++ game:

27>CSC : error CS0006: Metadata file ‘C:\Program Files\UE_5.4\Engine\Source\Programs\Shared\EpicGames.Horde\obj\Development\net6.0\ref\EpicGames.Horde.dll’ could not be found

… net6.0\ref folder is empty.

What I have done so far: .NET 6.0 SDK is installed, and now visible in dotnet --list-sdks.

I’m considering reinstalling Visual Studio, but since I use it for many other projects, I wanted to first ask: Is there something obvious I might be missing to resolve this issue?
