I created a dub project with some dependencies, build the proj with dub, and then tried to build with VS 2019. I get the following errors, note the crazy generated paths:

Building lib\BindBC_bgfx.lib...

Paths created by dub sometimes look like this, but I suspect that home\rishub is wrong, should probably be Users\Rish.

Does you build the project with "dub build"?

Looks like a dub issue to me. Maybe you have some environment variable that confuses dub (HOME?). You can report it here: https://github.com/dlang/dub/issues
