compile simple interface with VS 2017

[BradUTEC]

I am getting the error...

Error The command "call "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\Common7\IDE\..\Tools\vsDevCmd32.bat"
link.exe /edit /LARGEADDRESSAWARE /nxcompat:no "D:\TestStand\UserInterfaces\Source Code\bin\x86\Release\TestExec.exe"" exited with code 9009. TestExec

I am Running TestStand 2019 and VS 2017.

I found the Post Build Event command line and changed it to read call "$(DevEnvDir)..\Tools\vsDevCmd32.bat" from vsvars32.bat.

I also tried a re-edit it to point explicitly to the directory where the file resided.

I also added the folder to the PC environment variable.

I am apparently just shotgunning and not understanding the root cause.

I have VS 2013 installed on my PC.  If that creates a conflict, I can uninstall it.

Any suggestions?

Did you find a solution? I have the exact same issue with VS2019.

Ok, after some searching i find this topic:

you have to change the build event: Replace VSVARS32.bat with VsDevCmd.bat (Visual Studio 2015 and earlier versions used VSVARS32.bat / See the links in the topic above)
