Can't build CEF

[finder2]

I'm trying to rebuild and update my client with codecs support, but it fails at

update_depot_tools.bat

It says that

gomacc.exe has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.
Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

CMD output:

How can I fix it?

Have you built CEF/Chromium successfully on this machine previously? If so, perhaps a downloaded file has become corrupted. You might try a new/clean download of depot_tools.

Yep, I built CEF many times, but Windows 10 was 1803, now I updated it up to 22H2 version.

I managed to complete update_depot_tools.bat from my old depot_tools (2 years old), but when I run update.bat occurs similar error

This doesn't fix the underlying issue, but you can stop depot_tools from updating an additional time by setting the DEPOT_TOOLS_UPDATE=0 environment variable.

I just tried to build it on my server on clean Windows 10 and Visual Studio community 2022 and got the same error on update_depot_tools.bat, but without "gomacc.exe has stopped working"

I run into an update_depot_tools.bat error as well (not sure if it is the same error) on Windows 10 (branch 5563).
Anyways, what worked *for me* was manual editing of depot_tools/update_depot_tools.bat and commented out the goma_ctl.bat line
from

call "%~dp0\goma_ctl.bat" update_hook

to

:: call "%~dp0\goma_ctl.bat" update_hook

[/quote]
After this, the error went away and the build succeeded.

Thanks, it helped to complete update_depot_tools.bat and download CEF and Chromium at update.bat,
but it still fails at create.bat if I add codecs support

set GN_DEFINES=is_component_build=true proprietary_codecs=true ffmpeg_branding=Chrome
set GN_ARGUMENTS=--ide=vs2022 --sln=cef --filters=//cef/*
call cef_create_projects.bat
