We need to create the _.cpp_ file that will hold the _main()_ function. Remember, every C++ program needs a _main()_ function to run.

This can be done by right clicking "Source Files" on the right hand side (in the Solution Explorer) and clicking _"Add"_ -> _"New Item..."_.

Make sure C++ File (_.cpp_) is highlighted and either change the name (I always use _main.cpp_) or keep it as _Source.cpp_ and click _"Add"_ in the bottom right.
