Installing Visual Studio caveats
|
||||
--------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
If installing Visual Studio 2017 or 2019, make sure to enable **C++** in
|
||||
the list of workflows to install.
|
||||
|
||||
If installing Visual Studio 2015, make sure to run a **Custom**
|
||||
installation instead of **Typical** and select **C++** as a language there.
|
||||
|
||||
If you've already made the mistake of installing Visual Studio without
|
||||
C++ support, run the installer again; it should present you a **Modify** button.
|
||||
Running the installer from *Add/Remove Programs* will only give you
|
||||
a **Repair** option, which won't let you install C++ tools.
