When creating a new project
, prefer using
.NET over
.NET Framework
, unless you have a very specific reason to be using
.NET Framework
.
.NET Framework is now legacy code and only get security fix updates
, it no longer gets new features and is not recommended
.

Create a program where the user can add and remove elements from a listBox object
.
Make a program with a PictureBox that changes the picture according to which of three RadioButtons the user has selected
.
Create a Windows Forms project that contains a webBrowser object
. Use the
.Navigate method to navigate to a url
.

surely you must have picked up on the fact that
.net framework is indeed very old and outdated at this point

. Did you check the
"Desktop development
" workload when you installed Visual Studio
?
