The System Cannot Find The File Specified

Hey
I installed Base Toolkit and HPC Toolkit 2024.0 and I tried to run a Fortran code with VS2022 community edition and intel fortran compiler but it gives me the following error

1>The Intel(R) Linker (xilib.exe) could not be found.

and that the system cannot find the file Specified as shown in the photo

The second error is a result of the first. Did you configure the "Desktop development with C++" in Visual Studio as described at Installing Microsoft Visual Studio* for Use with Intel® Compilers ?

[hamza2hb]

yes I did from the beginning

I suggest uninstalling and then reinstalling the HPC Toolkit.

I did for both Base Toolkit and HPC Toolkit but unfortunately still the same problem

You have to uninstall all of the VS as well or modify the VS installer so the following is installed or nothing works

Make sure it is ticked and then update and then reinstall the base and HPC, do it with admin rights
