I am porting a solution from vs2013 to vs2019


On build I get the error:


Error MSB8031

Building an MFC project for a non-Unicode character set is deprecated. You must change the project property to Unicode or download an additional library. See MFC MBCS DLL Add-on for more information.


I need to download the appropriate MFC DLLs to support ASCII projects(MBCS) but the instructions lead to non existent steps.


E.G.: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/mfc/mfc-mbcs-dll-add-on?view=vs-2019 states to use Visual Studio Installer, but that doesn't help.


Please advise
