Recently I updated my Visual Studio 2017.
Since then, I can't create windows console application project.
[File] - [New] - [Project]
and I selected [Installed] - [visual C++] - [windows console application program]
When I clicked OK, application setting wizard didn't appear.
above wizard didn't appear. Instead Visual Studio automatically created precompiled header project.
What's wrong?
According to Visual Studio 2017 release notes:
The Windows Console and Desktop Application templates now create the projects without displaying a wizard. There's a new Windows Desktop Wizard under the same category that displays the same options as before.
I resolved my issue.
Go to file -> new project -> visual c++ -> windows desktop -> windows desktop wizard
There's a new Windows Desktop Wizard under the same category that displays the same options as before
Be sure you selected ... Wizard by creating project. There you can select "Console Application" type , DLL... in drop down menu. If you have selected "Windows Console Application" for instance there is no wizard any more, it creates full project. You can set/change that under:
Configuration Properties → C++ → Precompiled Headers
if you need to have an empty console application project, try empty project. [Installed] - [visual C++] - [Empty Project]. Then add new .cpp file to the Source Files folder in solution explorer. [right click on Source Files] - [Add New Item] - [C++ File (.cpp)].
