Building in VS2019 errors:

Not seeing any issue with a vanilla up to date install of VS2019.

For the record, VS2019 is what I am using for EfiFs development, so I am checking that VS2019 does work on regular basis.

Most likely, you didn't change the default target VS2019 is compiling to (which would be aa64) and you failed to follow the README instructions, that tell you exactly what you need to do to install ARM/ARM64 support. So you either need to install support for those or change the compilation target in VS2019.

I don't care about ARM. Only x64. I built everything in Debian, but VS2019 comes with a lot of syntax errors for some reason.

For VS this is the only requirement I see: Visual Studio (non EDK2)

Open the solution file and hit F5 to compile and debug the default driver.

Again, I am not seeing that error in a vanilla installation of VS2019, so there's not much I can do to help. My guess is that you didn't properly install the C++ compilation environment, so you will have to sort that out, as I have never seen the error you report.

I am now able to compile through CMD. It was related to https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-pytool-extensions/issues/207#issuecomment-645466243 Still having troubles with the Visual Studio F5 though.

Okay. I'm going to close this issue since the problem is with your environment and there isn't much help I can provide.
