VsWhere cannot find components

[marinat]

I'm trying to run flutter desktop example, but flutter doctor cannot find necessary vs components flutter/flutter#40335

The command works against my 16.3 Preview 3.0 install. Teams may change component names, though they are encouraged not to. Use https://github.com/microsoft/vssetup.powershell to run the following and see if the components truly are installed or what other names they might be under for 16.2 (which is what you have installed):

get-vssetupinstance -path 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community' | select -expand Packages | select -expand Id | sort

If you check the list passed to -requires, you'll find you're missing Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.VC.Tools.x86.x64, which corresponds to the component (at least in 16.3 preview) titled "MSVC v142 - VS 2019 C++ x64/x86 build tools (v14.23)". Make sure you have that checked.
