CodePudding user response：

The tutorials you're following are for Visual Studio. You've installed Visual Studio Code. Despite the similar names, they are completely separate products with completely different UI's and implementations, but with a little overlap in functionality. If you want the full Visual Studio (the current version of which is 2022), you probably qualify for the free Community edition, which you can download here, though of course you should double check the license to be sure.
