I have every option for 14.36, 14.37, and 14.40 installed on visual studio 2022. I have a working file I created in 5.4, so I’m not sure what changed in one version.

Poking Visual Studio and compiler tools with a stick long enough, opened up my 5.4 project haven given up on 5.5, and its telling me I’m missing packages. Not suprised, I’ve ripped and reinstalled a couple of times over. Installs 14.38, then compiles. Try 5.5 again, creates project.
All’s well that ends well.
