Choose C++ Desktop Dev, which is right under Universal Windows Platform Dev.

Answer 3

Whats the exact error message?

Answer 4

Why don't you use VC++?

Community is free and has less features than Pro or Enterprise :

Answer 5

Are you sure you're using Visual Studio Code because I can't find a Pro/Enterprise version.

If you are using VS Pro, there is a free trial.

Answer 6

VS Code seems like just a code editor without any IDE which is probably why you're having problems compiling.

Answer 7

Yes, download that only if you want to make windows apps. Choose C++ install option if you want to make C++ apps.

No problem.
