Getting Started & Setup

I’m receiving a strange error when trying to run GenerateProjectFiles.bat

Setting up Unreal Engine 4 project files...
ERROR: Visual Studio 2019 (14.22.27905) must be installed in order to build this target.

GenerateProjectFiles ERROR: UnrealBuildTool was unable to generate project files.

Press any key to continue . . .

I’ve tried searching around the internet for some answers to no avail. I’m running out of patience for this issue. I’ve already checked BuildConfiguration.xml, and I can confirm that I have VS 2019 installed. In fact I updated it today before I started compiling 4.22 with absolutely not a single issue. This is the first time I’ve had an issue with the engine where there were no information available to help me.
