Hi Eliot,
I did that, I used a x64 Native shell from Visual Studio. But it does neither work with 2022 nor with 2017, I deinstalled 2022 today and installed 2017, same result. It shows me only the first line what the script prints out. I have currently no access to my computer, I am not at home. But it shows only that DEBUG is started, just one line, nothing more.
Maybe I need to have a look into the batch files, I am afraid of that :-)

I do all the things described in the HowToBuild, but when I do ../common/MAKEDEBUG.bat I get only the one output line that it does the DEBUG, but the script immediately stops, nothing happens.
