Packaging Error LNK1327: failure during running mt.exe

[ChanceTBrunton]

I added this plugin from the marketplace to a small 5.6 blueprint project and now I get an error whenever I try to package the project. Before adding the plugin, the game packaged normally. Running as standalone still seems to function, loading screen and all. Is there any advice you can give me? Thank you in advance!

This is my error:

UATHelper: Packaging (Windows): LINK : fatal error LNK1327: failure during running mt.exe

I've attached my full log, and the other log file it referenced. I'm not sure what the difference is, they both seem to give similar information.

This isn't related to the ASL plugin. There are linkage issues. It seems like you didn't install the Visual Studio C++ SDK for Unreal Engine properly.

That seems odd since I have compiled and packaged c++ projects. When I convert this project to C++ by adding a dummy C++ class and then running through visual studio, it works fine. The instructions said that wasn't necessary though.
