building c# scripts not possible

Bratze

Hi. After cleaning up the drive of my notebook (it is only a 256 GB Drive) i am not able to start a scene containing scripts in c#. I have Godot 3.4 (of course the mono-Version) and Windows 10.

I have deleted older .net Versions on the drive because i need some space on my drive. Unfortunately now Godot is not able to compile my C# scripts. I wasn't able to fix the problem because there is not that much information in the error:

And this message: Running: "C:\Program Files (x86)\dotnet\dotnet.EXE" msbuild "C:/Users/bernd/develop/godot/vrtest/Vrtest.sln" /restore /t:Build "/p:Configuration=Debug" /v:normal "/l:GodotTools.BuildLogger.GodotBuildLogger,C:\Users\bernd\OneDrive\Desktop\dev and learn\godot\GodotSharp\GodotSharp\Tools\GodotTools.BuildLogger.dll;C:/Users/bernd/AppData/Roaming/Godot/mono/build_logs\1830939c144fec77f7c673001d6b4de5_Debug" /p:GodotTargetPlatform=windows

Could not execute because the application was not found or a compatible .NET SDK is not installed. Possible reasons for this include: You intended to execute a .NET program: The application 'msbuild' does not exist. You intended to execute a .NET SDK command: It was not possible to find any installed .NET SDKs. Install a .NET SDK from: https://aka.ms/dotnet-download

I still have the .net frameworks on my machine: 4.7.2 Standard-framework and following Core Versions : 3.1;5.0;5.1

Any ideas what i could do about this ?

Thanks much and Kind regards

You have to install the C# MSBuild tools on your system. Download this (scroll to the bottom to build tools for visual studio): https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/?q=build+tools

I have them installed. Something else is going wrong :'(

Have you restarted your computer after installing the C# MSBuild tools? On Windows especially, sometimes a restart can fix issues where it doesn't find installed libraries and frameworks.

You may also need to go to the project settings, then to the Mono tab and change the C# build property from Mono to .Net CLI, if I am remembering the names correctly. I think it defaults to Mono by default, so switching it might fix it if you have the C# build tools installed through VisualStudio.

Yeah, the Editor settings in Godot have an option for MSBuild. Also see here: https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/getting_started/scripting/c_sharp/c_sharp_basics.html
