[.NET 4.6] Standalone x86 builds can't start

Hello,

Building an x86 standalone build using .NET 4.6 won't start and cause a "Failed to load mono" error instead.
This doesn't happen when using il2cpp or with .NET 3.5 or targeting x86_64.

I filed bug report 987235 last week but it hasn't been accepted yet.

 

i can confirm that issue...none of my project builds are starting, when build with .net 4.6 and x86
just getting a fatal error window saying "failed to find mono" . new API Comp. Level .net Standard 2.0 builds giving the same error as well. .NET 3.5 builds work fine.

Then i updated my VS2017 to v.15.5.4, restarted my machine and switched my External Script Editor in the Preferences/External Tools menu from "Visual Studio 2017" to "Visual Studio 2017 (Community)" (whatever the difference is here) and now, x64 builds seem to start now also as .NET 4.6 Windows exe,
But for x86 builds, the error above is remaining.
