Missing BinaryPrerequisitesMarker.dat File Error in UE5 Main Branch

Environment

• Stack: Visual Studio 2022, Windows 10 SDK, version 1903 (10.0.18362.1) (I am unable to find 10.0.18362.0 in windows sdk archive )
• Commit: c825148dc6e018f358c5d36346c8698c47835a48

Issue Description

After cloning the UE5 main branch and checking out the specified commit, I encountered an error when running GenerateProjectFiles.bat -2022. The error suggests that some required files are missing for project generation.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Clone the UE5 main branch.
2. Checkout to commit c825148dc6e018f358c5d36346c8698c47835a48.
3. Run GenerateProjectFiles.bat -2022.

Actual Behavior

The script fails with the following error message:

GenerateProjectFiles ERROR: It looks like you're missing some files that are required in order to generate projects. Please check that you've downloaded and unpacked the engine source code, binaries, content and third-party dependencies before running this script.

Upon further inspection, I found that the script checks for the existence of ..\Build\BinaryPrerequisitesMarker.dat, which is missing:

if not exist ..\Build\BinaryPrerequisitesMarker.dat goto Error_MissingBinaryPrerequisites

I have tried deleting and re-cloning the repository, but the issue persists.

Additional Context

I am using the Windows 10 SDK version 1903 (10.0.18362.1) as version 10.0.18362.0 is not available on the Windows SDK Archive.

Any assistance or guidance on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
