Error code: 1

When attempting to use amd64, uwp, with bundled CMake.

I'm not sure what I can do to rectify this.

This issue appears to have one possible resolution on the CLion forums here. Essentially, you need to let CMake know that your platform is WindowsStore. You can update the CMake Options this via the CLion GUI (File > Settings > Build, Execution, Deployment > CMake), by adding the following flags:

-DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=WindowsStore -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION=10

Then, set your CLion platform to store, and try to rebuild.
