Simulation on Windows 10 error: recipe for target 'generate_assets' failed
I have a fresh install of TouchGFX Designer (4.20.0) running on a Windows 10 computer. Although the code for "Animated Image Example" will generate, the simulation will not compile. I've used all the default settings with no modifications. I'm following this tutorial from TouchGFX.
When running the simulator the log shows:

FailedThere is no modification to the Makefile and the result is the same when executing using TouchGFX Environment (4.20.0).
Other similar questions deal with prior versions where the text files are in .xls vs .xml formatting. The only other place I found a reference was to address errors, but that is a different error format than what I've posted. Any thoughts on what is causing this error?
