 ### Windows 10 or later
 
-* [CMake 3.28.0+](https://www.cmake.org/download/) (add to PATH)
+The following tools are required to build RPCS3 on Windows 10 or later:
-* [Python 3.6+](https://www.python.org/downloads/) (add to PATH)
+- [Visual Studio 2022](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/thank-you-downloading-visual-studio/?sku=Community) (or at least Visual Studio 2019 16.11.xx+ as C++20 is not included in previous versions)
-* [Qt 6.7.3](https://www.qt.io/download-qt-installer)
+- **Optional** - [CMake 3.28.0+](https://www.cmake.org/download/) (add to PATH)
-* [Visual Studio 2022](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/thank-you-downloading-visual-studio/?sku=Community) (or at least Visual Studio 2019 16.11.xx+ as C++20 is not included in previous versions)
-* [Vulkan SDK 1.3.268.0](https://vulkan.lunarg.com/sdk/home) (See "Install the SDK" [here](https://vulkan.lunarg.com/doc/sdk/latest/windows/getting_started.html)) for now future SDKs don't work. You need precisely 1.3.268.0.
 
-**Either add the** `QTDIR` **environment variable, e.g.** `<QtInstallFolder>\6.7.3\msvc2019_64\` **, or use the [Visual Studio Qt Plugin](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=TheQtCompany.QtVisualStudioTools2019)**
+  **NOTES:**
+  - **Visual Studio 2022** integrates **CMake 3.29+** and it also supports both the `sln` solution (`.sln`, `.vcxproj`) and `CMake` solution (`CMakeLists.txt`, `CMakePresets.json`).
+    See sections [Building with Visual Studio sln solution](#building-with-visual-studio-sln-solution) and [Building with Visual Studio CMake solution](#building-with-visual-studio-cmake-solution)
+    on how to build the project with **Visual Studio**.
+  - Install and use this standalone **CMake** tool just in case of your preference. See section [Building with standalone CMake tool](#building-with-standalone-cmake-tool) on how to build the project
+    with standalone **CMake** tool.
 
-**NOTE: If you have issues with the Qt plugin, you may want to uninstall the Qt Plugin and install the [Legacy Qt Plugin](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=TheQtCompany.LEGACYQtVisualStudioTools2019) instead.**
+- [Python 3.6+](https://www.python.org/downloads/) (add to PATH)

+
+The `sln` solution available only on **Visual Studio** is the preferred building solution. It easily allows to build the **RPCS3** application in `Release` and `Debug` mode.
+
+In order to build **RPCS3** with the `sln` solution (with **Visual Studio**), **Qt** libs need to be detected. To detect the libs:
+- add and set the `QTDIR` environment variable, e.g. `<QtInstallFolder>\6.7.3\msvc2019_64\`
+- or use the [Visual Studio Qt Plugin](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=TheQtCompany.QtVisualStudioTools2019)
+
+  **NOTE:** If you have issues with the **Visual Studio Qt Plugin**, you may want to uninstall it and install the [Legacy Qt Plugin](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=TheQtCompany.LEGACYQtVisualStudioTools2019) instead.
+
+In order to build **RPCS3** with the `CMake` solution (with both **Visual Studio** and standalone **CMake** tool):
+- add and set the `CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH` environment variable to the **Qt** libs path, e.g. `<QtInstallFolder>\6.7.3\msvc2019_64\`

+##### Building the projects
 
-If you're not using the precompiled libs, build the following projects in *__BUILD_BEFORE* folder by right-clicking on a project > *Build*.:

-`Build > Build Solution`
+If you're not using the precompiled libs, those dependency libs need to be compiled first. From the `Solution Explorer` panel:
+1) expand `__BUILD_BEFORE`
+2) from the `Solution Configurations` drop-down menu, select `Release` (select `Debug` if you want to build in `Debug` mode)
+3) one after another, right-click on the following projects and then click on `Build` to build the selected lib:
+   - `glslang`
+   - either `llvm_build`
+   - or `llvm_build_clang_cl` (if you installed **clang** on VS)
+
+In order to build the **RPCS3** application:
+1) from the `Solution Configurations` drop-down menu, select `Release` (select `Debug` if you want to build in `Debug` mode)
+
+   **NOTE:** In case you previously compiled the dependency libs under `__BUILD_BEFORE`, you have also to select the same build configuration (e.g. `Release`, if you compiled the dependency libs in `Release` mode)
+
+2) click on `Build` menu and then on `Build Solution`
+3) once the build is completed, the **RPCS3** application will be available under the `<rpcs3_root>\bin` folder
+
+#### Building with Visual Studio CMake solution
+
+Start **Visual Studio**, click on `Open a local folder` and select the RPCS3's root folder
+
+Once the project is open on VS, from the `Solution Explorer` panel:
+1) right-click on `rpcs3` and then click on `Switch to CMake Targets View`
+2) from the `Configuration` drop-down menu, select `msvc-release` (select `msvc-debug` if you want to build in `Debug` mode)
+3) right-click on `CMakeLists.txt Project` and then click on `Configure Cache`
+4) once the cache is created, the `rpcs3 project` will be available
+5) right-click on `rpcs3 Project` and then click on `Build All`, or click on `Build` menu and then on `Build All`
+6) once the build is completed, the **RPCS3** application will be available under the `<rpcs3_root>\build-msvc\bin` folder
+
+#### Building with standalone CMake tool
+
+In case you preferred to install and use the standalone **CMake** tool:
+1) move on the RPCS3's root folder
+2) execute the following commands to create the cache and to build the application (for the build, use `--preset msvc-debug` if you want to build in `Debug` mode), respectively:
+
+   ```
+   cmake --preset msvc
+   cmake --build --preset msvc-release
+   ```
+3) once the build is completed, the **RPCS3** application will be available under the `<rpcs3_root>\build-msvc\bin` folder
