I have MS Visual Studios 20019 community edition installed but have yet to use for anything..
so since PCSX2 is setup to build with it I gave it a whorl....
I set it to Release AVX2 and x64.. I tried to build the entire solution file...
I got 6 failed projects so it failed over all...
163 errors and 365 warnings...
there seems to be missing files...
like lzma in the xz folder
PCSX2\3rdparty\xz\xz <-- is empty
one error is
Cannot open source file: 'xz\src\common\tuklib_cpucores.c': No such file or directory liblzma
PCSX2\3rdparty\xz
if a mod or admin wants I will move this post to a new thread..
delete the pcsx2's repos directory
and reclone it from github and build it again
im at dev-1287 build now w/o an error after a clean up and reclone.

ok I will give that a try..
still no good... still have missing files
the xz folder is empty..
F:\Dev-src\_Emulators\src_repo__git___PCSX2\3rdparty\fmt\fmt
F:\Dev-src\_Emulators\src_repo__git___PCSX2\3rdparty\xz\xz
F:\Dev-src\_Emulators\src_repo__git___PCSX2\3rdparty\yaml-cpp\yaml-cpp
these are empty and missing files need to compile.. PCSX2 it seems..

you still need to compile 1 more item the total will be 2.
"Release and ReleaseAVX2" at x64
thx but that kinda was not what I was looking for...
I wanted to be able to compile it myself... but... thx anyway..
I tried out your version but it lacks the build version strings in the title bar...
EDIT:
ooh so I need to compile "Release and ReleaseAVX2" at x64 ok I will try that..
EDIT2(06/09/2021 @ 2:31am EDT):
I just tried Release build non AVX2 as x64
still no good... it keeps telling me there are missing files in the 3rd party folder... etc..

because it's build on a local machine and in a cloned repository it will display as 1.7.0.0-(git)
no need to bother that

it's Release and ReleaseAVX btw not "Release AVX2"
unless there is "0 errors" and hundreds of warnings that will be fine.
I found the website,
https://tukaani.org/xz/
which is the source of he XZ source code..
I have verified the missing files in the archive that that website has and matched them to the missing files in the directories that they need to be in so here is hoping it will compile now...
well probably not... because there were more missing files.. then just XZ code
EDIT:
it helped a bit from 163 errors down to just 72 now..
EDIT:2
I also found the websites for
- fmt
- yaml-cpp
- libchdr
use "blend for visual studio 2019"
