Help Please "Could not be compiled. Try rebuilding from source manually."

So I’m trying to open up a project that my programmer sent me and I can’t get it to open, it says as it does in the tile and I saw someone else with a similar issue was given the tip to check the log and I have that up but I have no clue what any of it means. I’ll leave it down below if anyone can help.

Try delete every folders but the content and source in the project folder. When you open the uproject file it will ask if you want to rebuild click yes.

Do you have a SDK on your system?

Did you install Visual Studio Community as instructed? It should have installed this SDK with the instructed settings.
