fatal error C1010 - “stdafx.h” in Visual Studio how can this be corrected?

Question

I compile the following code but I get a compile error in Visual Studio that I cannot understand.

#include 

using namespace std;

int main()         


        

Answer 1

Create a new "Empty Project" , Add your Cpp file to the new project, delete the line that includes stdafx.

Done.

The project no longer needs the stdafx. It is added automatically when you create projects with installed templates.

Turn off pre compiled headers:

Project Properties -> C++ -> Precompiled Headers

set Precompiled Header to "Not Using Precompiled Header".

Answer 3

The first line of every source file of your project must be the following:

#include <stdafx.h>
