The build tools for v143 cannot be found - Build Tool Installed & Using Correct VS Version

This is similar to other questions where MS build tools could not be found but in my case I have already installed the build tools and I am using the correct version of VS for the specified tools (VS2022) on Windows 10.

The error message "The build tools for v143 cannot be found" is occurring when I try to build a C++ project in VS2022 that was originally developed using VS2010 but was upgraded to use the v143 build tools.

I have the following installed:

VS Installer - Components (Compilers, Build Tools And Runtimes)

VS Installer - Components (Development Activities)

Can anyone explain why this is happening and provide a solution?

I suggest you refer to this issue:

I suggest you install VS2022 to use v143 build tools. Or you can right-click on your project > Properties > General > Platform Toolset and select the corresponding version for your VS.

Similarly, this FeedBack also has reference value.
