(SOLVED) Error CVT1107 and LNK1123 from Release (GitHub)

Development Programming & Scripting
1

Hi,
I have just downloaded Unreal Engine using the GitHub client for Windows. I downloaded from the “release” repository.
Then I ran the “Setup.bat” from the folder, where I downloaded Unreal Engine to. After that, I ran “GenerateProjectFiles.bat”. When it was all done, I builded “UE4” from Visual Studio 2013 Professional.

When it was done, I got 80 errors. They were very similar, so I will just write two of them here; tell me if you need them all.

Error 1:

Description: error CVT1107: ‘C:\Users\Anders\Documents\GitHub\UnrealEngine\Intermediate\Build\Win64\UE4Editor\Development\EditorWidgets\Module.EditorWidgets.cpp.obj’ is corrupt

File: CVTRES

Error 2:

Description: error LNK1123: failure during conversion to COFF: file invalid or corrupt

File: LINK

This repeats with a lot of different files, and I don’t know what to do.

**EDIT: **
A rebuild fixed the problem.

Hi Defalt,

Are you still having trouble with this issue? If so, could you please download the attached file and save it to your desktop. Remove the .txt extension and run the file. It will create a new info.txt file containing information about your Visual Studio installation. If you could upload that here so I can take a look, that would be helpful.

Also, do you have any other versions of Visual Studio installed?

Hello, thank you for the help. It worked when I rebuild the solution. And no, I have no previous versions of Visual Studio installed.
