UWP Visual Studios 2017/2019 LNK1181 Error

Hello,

Since I upgraded to Unity 2018.4.5 and to 2019.12 f1 and now 19.2f1, I'm getting LNK 1181 error (cannot open input file "my game file"\master\GameAssembly.lib) when I got to rebuild the project in Visual Studios 2017 and 2019. When I navigate to the folder, it's empty.

Any suggestions? I uninstalled and reinstalled Unity version and still getting this error.

Thanks,

John

@Tautvydas-Zilys ,

Everything loads in Visual Studios fine just when I go to build it. I check the folder is looking for and its empty. I attached images.

Thanks,
John
