Unable to launch or generate .sln file in 4.23

HI, I'm having trouble getting this working in 4.23. When I try to create an .sln 4.23 I get this message

Hi, please use the 4.23 branch https://github.com/tranek/GASDocumentation/tree/4.23

Although do note that the 4.23 branch is behind master in some changes/bug fixes.

If you want to try master, you will probably need to remove the line DefaultBuildSettings = BuildSettingsVersion.V2; from GASDocumentationEditor.Target.cs (a change in 4.24). I don't know if anything else in master will break on 4.23. I'm only supporting the current binary release of UE on the master branch.

thanks, I just installed 4.24 and it's working fine. thanks so much for this example, I'm teaching high schoolers game dev and have been struggling with the ARPG epic example.
