I am configuring a GoCD Agent on a VM and all builds were compiling with MSBuild and VS2017 installed on the VM. At some point I needed to install VS2015 in order to get the office tools and in the middle of the installation I abort it. After that all the builds are failing, I can see an error due to a missing MyAssembly.dll.licenses in the obj folder. I have already restarted the server and the issue still remains. I have windows server 2016 installed on the VM.
What are these files and how are they generated? Am I missing some environment variable?
