Hi @Jimbohalo10,

THANK YOU. I can hardly believe it, but your suggestion absolutely fixed it. I just created the empty missing folder “…\Engine\Restricted\NotForLicensees\Build” and re-generated. VS2022 built it with zero errors.

I’m almost embarrassed that was such a simple fix!

FYI, GenerateProjectFiles.bat now raises a warning if you pass the -2022 flag in the Terminal, and directs you to update your BuildConfiguration.xml file instead, as follows:

         <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
         <Configuration xmlns="https://www.unrealengine.com/BuildConfiguration">
           <ProjectFileGenerator>
             <Format>VisualStudio2022</Format>
           </ProjectFileGenerator>
         </Configuration>

I did that, and am happily running a successful build. Thanks again.
