I can't reproduce this issue in my side with the latest vcpkg.

i have the same issue, someone knows how to fix?

UPD: Need to install VS2022

Boost Cobalt lib has prerequisites located in CheckRequirements.cmake file

you need a MSVC compiler of version >= 19.30

if(MSVC_VERSION AND MSVC_VERSION LESS 1930)
    message(STATUS "Boost.Cobalt: not building, the lowest supported MSVC version is 1930.  ${MSVC_VERSION} is not supported")
    return()
endif()
