How to Fix SDK Not Setup - The SDK for Windows is not installed properly, which is needed to generate data. Check the SDK section of the Launch On menu in the main toolbar to update SDK. Would you like to attempt to continue anyway?

Alright, so you just finished making an awesome game in the brand new Unreal Engine 5 and you go to package it for Windows and you get this error - “SDK Not Setup.” So how do you fix this warning?

Alright, so as it says here this is the “SDK for Windows 11” but don’t worry if you don’t have Windows 11. This works for Windows 7 and up. And then down here, you just click on this button to download the installer, and once it finishes downloading just run that and follow the instructions in order to install the SDK.

Okay, and once you’ve completed those three steps you should be able to go back to Platforms - Windows - Package Project and be able to package your project without any errors.
