Hi there @algoscienceacademy

Please check issue #80, I think this error message is the same that caused that issue.

If that doesn't fix it, please tell us.

Have a nice day!

Hi!

Could you please run these two commands in a PowerShell window and post the results here?

& "$env:USERPROFILE\.waveengine\WaveEngine.Editor\3.2.0.7787-preview\Editor\Content\vswhere.exe" -latest -prerelease -products * -requires Microsoft.Component.MSBuild -property installationPath

Resolve-Path (Join-Path (& "$env:USERPROFILE\.waveengine\WaveEngine.Editor\3.2.0.7787-preview\Editor\Content\vswhere.exe" -latest -prerelease -products * -requires Microsoft.Component.MSBuild -property installationPath) 'MSBuild\*\Bin\MSBuild.exe')

These two commands will verify that the MSBuild component is installed and its path can be resolved properly.

The output of these commands should be something similar to this:

If these fail, you can check if you have correctly installed the Visual Studio requirements for running WaveEngine. These are listed in the website as being:

"Version 16.8 or greater with '.NET desktop development' and 'Universal Windows Platform development' workloads are required."

I hope this helps you!

After giving the results came. I have VS 16.11.2. Did I skip downloading any important VS tools? And what do I do now?

Hi!

I would guess you are missing MSBuild. Please check that you have the correct workloads installed. For this:

• Open the Visual Studio Installer and click the "Modify" button on your Visual Studio installation.
• Select the '.NET desktop development' and 'Universal Windows Platform development' workloads.
• Click the "Modify" button to install the components.

I think that will fix your issue, but please do tell us about your results.

Have a nice one!
