Hello.

I have tried all day to compile the latest version. Im on windows 10 64bit

Followed every instruction found in:

> <https://github.com/aseprite/aseprite/blob/master/INSTALL.md>

1. I’ve cloned the repository
2. Done the call for the VB.bat everytime I open a cmd.
3. Downloaded the pre compiled skia and laf
4. Everything is on the folder that is supposed to be  
5)Succesfully built everything with CMAKER
5. Locale is in english

But:

I always get ninja:build stopped: subcommand fail. I’ve scanned the log but I dont see any error.

I’ve done several clean installs  
I do not have MINGW (even unistalled git)

This is the last piece of the log before it fails:

Do you have any recommendation?

Thank you very much in advance.

Solved!

It seems there’s a problem in the current master branch.

It was solved with the help of the aseprite reddit community:

> **[r/aseprite - Can't compile. Any ideas?](https://www.reddit.com/r/aseprite/comments/hetgrd/cant_compile_any_ideas/)**
>
> 9 votes and 13 comments so far on Reddit

Compiled the zipped version of the file in /release and compiled it with no issue.
