Building version 4 fails.
While I once was able to build version 2, I have issues building version 4.
I'm pretty sure I followed all the steps as described in the instructions for building version 4 for Windows with Visual Studio 2019, standard build.
With all files and dependencies in place, it's my understanding from reading the instructions that all I have to do (to get started with building VS solution and project files) is to open the MuseScore checkout folder in VS2017.
When I do that, CMAKE indeed starts, but I almost immediately get errors:
"CMake Error: Could not create named generator Visual Studio 17 2022 Win64"
see also below.
Why is it mentioning VS versions other than 2019? The instructions don't mention anything about configuring anything. And it seems to want to build for a lot of different systems (Borland???).
Did I miss a configuration step somewhere?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
