VS 2013 -> VS 2022 LNK1104 cannot open file 'mfc120u.lib'

Hey Gurus,

I am trying to convert a solution with several projects in it from Visual Studio 2013 to Visual Studio 2022. I have come across a few hurdles, which I have managed to overcome, however I am having trouble fixing this linking error:

I've done a fair bit of Googling on it and still haven't found a solution that works for me.

Ideally I want to use mfc143u.lib. My platform toolset is set to Visual Studio 2022 (143), but it is still trying to link against the old MFC library.

I'm not too sure how to proceed, I'd really appreciate some help if someone could please?

Thanks heaps,

-SQ :-)
