To create a CLR empty project

  1. On the File menu, click New, and then click Project.

    The New Project dialog box appears.

  2. Under Installed Templates, click the Visual C++ node; then click the CLR node. Choose the CLR Empty Project icon. If you don't see the CLR empty project templates in the Create a new project dialog, you may need to install C++/CLI support. For more information, see Install C++/CLI support in Visual Studio 2022.

  3. In the Name box, enter a unique name for your application.

    Note

    You can also specify other project and solution settings from the New Project dialog box, but these settings are not required.

  4. Click OK.
