    Hello @Furkan Gözükara,

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

    If you have installed Visual Studio, please open Visual Studio Installer => Modify => Individual components => search MSVC and check components like MSVC v143 – VS 2022 C++ x64/x86 build tools (__v14.33__-17.3) or other similar components => click Modify to install it => after installing it, navigate to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\[edition]\VC\Tools\MSVC folder and check if 14.33.31629 exists.

    If Visual Studio hasn’t installed, please double click, and run the setup.exe file => wait for the Visual Studio Installer finishes installing => select the Workload that you want like Desktop development with C++ and choose the components mentioned above to install corresponding version of MSVC.

    Sincerely,

    Tianyu

    This is not the right solution. I Think there are bugs in the latest verision 14.36.32532. After I installed the 14.36.32532, I can't build my program with pre-compiled header problem. So we want to use the older version.
