I have almost finished building chromium from my windows desktop but I am stuck at the last step, running gn gen out/Default. I have checked my visual studio installer and Windows 10 SDK version 10.0.19041.0 has been already installed. I do not know what to do. The whole output is like the following:
C:\chromium\src>gn gen out/Default
Traceback (most recent call last):

From the chromium docs:
The SDK Debugging Tools must also be installed. If the Windows 10 SDK was installed via the Visual Studio installer, then they can be installed by going to: Control Panel → Programs → Programs and Features → Select the “Windows Software Development Kit” → Change → Change → Check “Debugging Tools For Windows” → Change. Or, you can download the standalone SDK installer and use it to install the Debugging Tools.
