Unable to build project after new windows install
I recently bought a new computer. After getting everything setup, I installed visual studio community 2019 and gitkraken and cloned down my project(which was building and running fine prior to changing computers) and I'm running into an issue. It's a game dev project using MonoGame.
These are the errors that I'm receiving currently. I've tried multiple versions of MonoGame including 3.0, 3.5, and 3.7. I've attempted to reinstall redistributables, I've cloned into multiple directories, I've attempted building a different project(a fork of the same project that I've worked on more recently on my previous pc). I have a friend that works on the project with me, he was able to clone into a new directory and build immediately. I've attempted building the content package in the MGCB manually and am also running into an issue where it's not finding a specific font file(that i've verified is installed on my computer, and also tried dropping in the correct directory for building, but have had no luck there. However, I feel like this is a separate issue, but it may provide some insight to someone who is more experienced than I.)
Ideally, this project should clone down and build just fine on a fresh install. It always has before, but there's something going on here that I'm not sure about. I've tried several different things and have hit a wall. There isn't much online about this specific issue that I've seen, so if anyone has any ideas I'm all ears. Thanks.
I figured out the issue. It was something simple as usual, a product of my own stupidity. When I first downloaded the font, I extracted and right click > install. So the font was installed on the PC. I spent a couple days on this issue, and at some point when trying to reinstall the font there was a new option that hadn't been there before called 'Install for all users' with the shield icon next to it. Previously, I'd only had the option to 'Install' without the shield icon. Not sure exactly what the difference is between these two options showing up, but once I clicked 'Install for all users', the issue was solved. So I guess initially the font was only installed for my specific user account. I'm not sure why this is an issue or why the option to install for everyone wasn't available previously, but this is what solved the problem.
