I need MSBUILD 14.0 and am willing to install Visual Studio to get it. What version of Visual Studio do I need to install to get MSBUILD 14.0? It looks like the MSBUILD version number and the Visual Studio name do not match.
If you have Visual Studio, then you already have MSBuild installed. With Visual Studio 2022, it's installed under the Visual Studio installation folder. For a typical default installation on Windows 10, MSBuild.exe is under the installation folder in MSBuild\Current\Bin.
MSBuild 17.1. This version of MSBuild shipped with Visual Studio 2022 17.1. 0 and . NET SDK 6.0.
VS Code supports tasks for build and natively understand the output of MSBuild, CSC, XBuild. Find out more in the Tasks documentation.
There is no way to determine which version of MSBuild was used. There is no days in the executable that says which version was used and nothing in them specific to MSBuild to use as a trail of breadcrumbs to determine it either. You dont even need MSBuild to build an executable.
Starting in Visual Studio 2013, the MSBuild Toolset version is the same as the Visual Studio version number. So if you have Visual Studio 2015 you should have MSBuild 14.0 already on your system.
