I'm trying to set up a build server for .NET, but can't figure out where MSBuild.exe is installed.
I'm trying to install MSBuild using the Microsoft Build Tools 2013: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40760
As per https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/msbuild/what-s-new-in-msbuild-15-0
MSBuild is now installed in a folder under each version of Visual Studio. For example, C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio2017EnterpriseMSBuild. You can also use the following PowerShell module to locate MSBuild: vssetup.powershell. MSBuild is no longer installed in the Global Assembly Cache. To reference MSBuild programmatically, use NuGet packages.
