❔ VS 2019 Basic Start Error

When I try to use even a basic code like;
using System;

namespace HelloWorld
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine("Hello World!");
}
}
}
it launches the cmd prompt inside VS and leaves me with the message, (1)
I am quite new to c# and I cannot proceed due to this.

Odd

My intuition tells me it might be something with .NET Framework... what version are you using?

Another thing would be maybe just installing VS 2022 instead

Yes but VS 2019 and 2022 has massive differences in terms of the code written

No they don't

C# is C#

I am currently using online sources for learning the language

most of them are old

Or do you mean the lack of Program and Main? If so, you can just add them

New versions of C# let you get rid of the useless boilerplate like that

But it will still work

Well as I said, most of the tutorials online is from VS 2019

There aren't that many differences between versions

And C# is C#

and by new I mean my only code experince is some livecode

A for loop will be the same, no matter if it's VS 2019, 2022, VS Code, or Notepad++

I'll try to change to VS2022 and see if it works

👍 Thanks
