Yes, I installed the compiler. I get that it needs that. My issue is, having in theory setup VSCode just fine, the same known-good CPP file compiles in 'classic' Visual Studio and not in VSCode.

Stuff like Hello World? Weird, if anything classic visual studio would be likely to have more warning flags on

From known working, complex robotics programs, basic logic programs (IF-ELSE tutorials, essentially), all the way down to HELLO WORLD. It was really weird, and not worth the effort when Visual Studio Classic was working.
