Navigate from Error List Tab
to the Visual Studios Output
folder by one of the following:
- Select tab
Output
in standard VS view at the bottom - Click in Menubar
View > Output
orCtrl+Alt+O
where Show output from <build>
should be selected.
You can find out more by analyzing the output logs.
In my case it was an error in the Cmake step, see below. It could be in any build step, as described in the other answers.
