VS-Installer

Post by Detlef »

Hi all,

I wanted to install MS Visual Studio to work with Harbor and FWH.
But I don't want tons of tools and software spoiling my pc.
Only the necessary programs to have a resource editor, compiler and linker.

Perhaps also an editor to write code. But first i'll want to have a look at it to see if I like the MS editor.
After download and running the installer I get a window where I must make a choice for ????

I don't know what to chose for my needs.
Could someone guide me for that?

Thanks and regards
Detlef

The first one C++ is the unique one needed.

I tried this option.
But I was afraid to see that this installation will take the place of more than 6 GB on my harddrive :x
Only to have a new resource editor, compiler and linker?
I cancelled the install process because this doesn't make sense for me.

Dear Detlef,

> Only to have a new resource editor, compiler and linker?

It offers you much more than that. It has a wonderful IDE, a great low level debugger, lots of tools that you will do appreciate when you investigate them :-)

> more than 6 GB on my harddrive

What is that for modern computers plenty of GBs ? :-)

Embrace the new, keep an open attitude and never stop learning...
regards, saludos
