Whenever i try to go from one scene to the next and i get the error referenced in the title
Mainmenu is an empty game object child to the canvas with menu buttons and text under it.

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.SceneManagement;

public class MainMenu : MonoBehaviour {

public void PlayGame()
{
    SceneManager.LoadScene(SceneManager.GetActiveScene().buildIndex + 1);
}

public void QuitGame()
{
    Application.Quit();
}

}

Hey there,

if you stumble upon this error you have to check the Gameobject named MainMenu in the scene that you just tried to load. At some point you attached a script as component to this object but probably later on removed said script from your project.
In the end this leaves unity with a reference on a gameobject to a script that does not exist.
Just remove the “missing component” from this object and you should be good to go.
