No MFC templates for new C ++ project - Visual C ++ Express

I was googling before publishing this, but I could not find anything on this topic .. but I do not think this is a very difficult question, so please forgive the message: o).

for the new assignment that I am getting in C ++, and following some tutorials. in particular, we are talking about MFC, it shows how to create a project by selecting an MFC application, etc. So, I installed Visual C ++ Express 2010 on both Vista and Win 7, and both times I had the same problem: when I switch to a new project, I don’t have the “MFC” menu. some screenshots from this tutorial, as well as some others in Visual C ++ 2010 clearly show that it might be there. more specifically, on the left corner I have "installed templates", then "Visual C ++" and "CLR", Win32 "and" General ", without MFC.

since these are "installed templates", I think I will need to install it, but I did not find any clear instructions on this topic; from what I found, it should be more or less from the very beginning ... I also found a way to add the MFC DLL through creating a Win32 application, but this does not look like it is the same thing. I also spent some time on the Visual C ++ menu, but did not find a clear way to add new templates like Eclipse ...

Well, I hope that I made it clear that this is quite simple, but if someone could give me a hand on this, I would really appreciate it.

Greetings Vincent

Visual Studio C ++ Express does not support the creation of MFC applications.

If you don't mind the unicode support leak, you can use visual studio 2013 express for your desktop and install free mfc mbcs support from microsoft. com
