I seem to be having issue with 5.1.0 preview 2. project getting corrupted while same actions work fine on 5.0.3

Steps to replicate:

  1. Create Thirdperson template blueprint project
  2. Create any C++ class (in my case Actor class)
  3. Error: Could not find code MyProject.sln
  4. Pressing generate visual studio project button does nothing and visual studio does not open either.
  5. I restart unreal engine, try to re-open project
  6. Get following errror:

Missing MyProject Modules

The following modules are missing or built with a different engine version:

MyProject

Would you like to rebuild them now?

  1. Pressing yes on ‘Would you like to rebuild them now’ results in:

Error

MyProject could not be compiled. Try rebuilding from source manually.

  1. pressing no results in unreal engine closing

There is no .sln file generated,

I tried reinstalling unreal engine, epic games launcher, doing fresh install of visual studio 2019/2022. same result

I have no such issue with 5.0.3 so i assume its issue with preview 2
