There is a problem when trying to Add C++ files in your step of help in documentation (a potential bug in Visual Studio Express for Desktop: Add Source Code to Your Project
[Link] - [Top] So far we have a project but as you see, the source folder is empty. Add an empty c++ file - under Solution Explorer, right click Source Files and select Add >> New Item... like so To fix this change this Registry Key: ...update TemplatesDir location in registry. The key to update is given below.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\WDExpress\12.0_Config\Projects{8BC9CEB8-8B4A-11D0-8D11-00A0C91BC943}\AddItemTemplates\TemplateDirs{F1C25864-3097-11D2-A5C5-00C04F7968B4}/1] "TemplatesDir"="C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\\VC\VCProjectItems_WDExpress" Worked like a charm for me on Windows 10 |
