Can not Export: The system cannot find the file specified

@Lindon
I guess (sorry for the time between answers, I need to w8 those 2 minutes)

[Lindon]

@Dlukas7

OK Export>Export as standalone application...

"Do you want to validate all sample references?" -- say OK

Export format: slect standalone 64-bit

"Do you want to rewrite the batch file for the compile process?" say OK

The command window opens and the compile begins - you cna safely ignore any yellow warnings...

@Lindon

[Lindon]

@Dlukas7 at what point does it say this...

[Dlukas7]

@Lindon
immediately after start... the CMD just flashes and than it shows this

[Lindon]

@Dlukas7 nope that doesnt happen. The cmd window will stay open for the entire process. So it looks like you have a broken version of VS

[Dlukas7]

@Lindon so what do I have to do?

[d.healey]

@Dlukas7 Did you build HISE from source?

[Dlukas7]

@d-healey I did what was shown in a video, so i hope so :D

[d.healey]

@Dlukas7 Can you make a video of trying export Lindon's example? So we can see what happens.

[Dlukas7]

@d-healey I ll try, but I need to find a program for recording screen 1st, so it will take some time

[Dlukas7]

@d-healey I can not show you the video cause It doesnt show any windows and my PC is having some audio problem so I can not even see if it works on other platforms cause it doesnt allow me to watch anything (I guess due to this hise setup...I can not even run YT)

[Dlukas7]

@d-healey thats all that happens

[Dlukas7]

@d-healey Am I the 1st one with this problem? :D Because I dont know what to do now... I need to have this plugin done in like a week and I still can not even export it...

[d.healey]

@Dlukas7 Does the same thing happen when you try to export a VST?

[Dlukas7]

@d-healey yep

[d.healey]

Did you open or create a HISE project before you pasted the snippet? You need to do this so HISE has the correct folder structure to put all the files.

[Christoph Hart]

What happens if you open cmd.exe and put msbuild in there? My guess is that you haven't installed VS2017 correctly because that error message tries to find the command line compiler that should be included with a proper install.

[d.healey]

@Christoph-Hart He built HISE from source earlier so VS must be installed correctly, no?
