Hi to all,

I am new to Visual Studio 2019 and I am trying to start a .cpp project using the C++ console App but the only one I get is shown in the attached image. I checked in the installation manager and everything is ok. What am I missing?

Thanks to eveybody

    I'm afraid you didn't install Desktop development with C++ correctly. Please follow the steps below to install Desktop development with C++.

    1. You need to check it in your Start first. Click the Visual Studio Installer in your Start.
