However, the most common missing components are MSVC v142 – VS 2019 C++ x64/x86 build tools, C++ CMake tools for Windows, Windows 10 SDK.
To fix this error, you can either re-run the Visual Studio installer and select the “Desktop development with C++” workload, or you can manually install the missing components.

To manually install the missing components, you can open the Visual Studio Installer and go to the “Individual components” tab. In the “Individual components” tab, you can select the missing components and click on the “Install” button.
Once the missing components have been installed, you should be able to build and run your C++ projects without any errors.
Make sure that you are using the latest version of Visual Studio. Older versions of Visual Studio may not have the necessary components to build and run C++ projects.
