Revision history [back]
You need to read the Wireshark Developers Guide end to end. While not complicated, there are a lot of steps to make a Wireshark build on Windows that must be followed exactly otherwise we get questions such as this.
The CMake generation step produces the appropriate Wireshark.sln file along with the many associated .vcxproj files.
Note that Wireshark development has switched to VS 2022, VS 2019 should work but doesn't get as much testing.
