Failed to compile recompiled code

[Memorix101]

When I try to recompile I get this error:

Executor: Running 'C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\msbuild.exe "..\..\projects\xenon\dolphin\temp/code/autocode.vcxproj" /ds /t:build /verbosity:minimal /nologo /p:Platform=x64 /p:Configuration=Build' Run: D:\SourceTree\recompiler\projects\xenon\dolphin\temp\code\autocode.vcxproj(14,3): error MSB4019: The imported project "D:\Microsoft.Cpp.Default.props" was not found.

I also get a error when trying to recompile but nothing like the above issue.

Any XEX I attempt to recompile even the default dolphin XEX gives me the exact same errors.

[290.217][I]: Run: Project file contains ToolsVersion="17.0".

What I dont get is why is it setting all the VC projects to use ToolsVersion="17.0" when this doesnt even exist yet. The highest it goes to is version 15.0 as of current date. There is no such thing as a ToolsVersion="17.0" as of now. So obvously it cant compile using a toolset version that doesnt even exist.

Then another thing I dont understand is it says in error log

Specified platform toolset (v140) is not installed or invalid

But that is my currently installed toolset version 14.0 yet it says its not installed or doesnt exist yet when I check in visual studio manually it claims its installed fine.

Any help resolving these issues would be grateful.

i am having a similar problem. I tried at first on VS17 and had no luck so now I'm trying with VS 2015.

I am still able to run recompiler_tools but only after transferring many of the dlls to the Release folder. After running the tool on the default xex file I get an error (which I cannot pull up right now, since the application isn't running). Basically it runs for about 30 seconds then has a similar msbuild error as mentioned by OP. And of course compiler failed to compile recompiled code.
