Building distro-launcher failing #105

Closed mousumih closed 2 years ago

mousumih commented 2 years ago

I am using git clone https://github.com/microsoft/WSL-DistroLauncher.git and then run build.bat from a Visual 2017 command prompt. I am seeing the following errors. I have VS2017 Professional installed in my platform. Please can you tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thank you Mousumi

Either update to Visual Studio 2022 or change the build tools version in project settings.

Either update to Visual Studio 2022 or change the build tools version in project settings.

I updated to Visual Studio 2022 and still see this issue error MSB8020: The build tools for Visual Studio 2017 (Platform Toolset = 'v141') - even though I have installed the 2017 toolset.

In the project settings for DisplayLauncher-Appx I try to change the platform toolset, but whatever I change to says not found. Launcher builds fine.
