I am a newbie to edk2, and I am trying to setup and build the edk2 as explained in the following link [edk2 tutorial wiki](https://github.com/tianocore training/Tianocore_Training_Contents/wiki).

but when I say

$ build -D ADD_SHELL_STRING -a X64 -p EmulatorPkg/EmulatorPkg.dsc

I see the following error log, I dont understand the error properly so I have pasted the log as follows

  • Please clarify your specific problem or provide additional details to highlight exactly what you need. As it's currently written, it's hard to tell exactly what you're asking. – Community May 23 '23 at 23:38
  • I have edited my question again, Basically what im trying to say is I am not able to build the edk2, it throws some error following the command (build -t VS2019 -a X64). I am not able to understand the error so that is why I pasted the log. Although as an update, when I tried building (build -t VS2019 -a IA32) it builds successfully. – Vibeesh V May 26 '23 at 11:06

Visual Studio toolchains keep changing the command line options and defaults between releases. For building with the VS2019 profile, you need a toolchain version in the 16.x series, but your output suggests you have a 14.x installed - meaning VS2015, -t VS2015, should work.
