[Why does Microsoft have ONLY "Visual Basic" and "Visual C#" as the language Forums? Forcing us to only one of those two?? Not even C++ !?! So hope this will be helpful as is to someone searching for MASM.]

I saw some very old archived pages about MASM and wanted to offer some help for anyone wanting to use Visual Studio 2019 (Retail or Community) with either 32-bit or 64-bit Assembly Code:

Here's a webpage from which you could download and then open various 32-bit or 64-bit example VS2019 Projects (after extracting somewhere, such as your "C:\Users\<user name>\source\repos\" folder, use "Open Project" and click on any of Kip's "Project.sln" files... which will provide all the necessary environment setup to get you started debugging and producing executable programs from Assembly Code!):

www.asmirvine dot com /gettingStartedVS2019/index.htm (you'll need to manually enter URL yourself, since I haven't been "verified" here yet... which I have no idea how that will occur).

If you do use his examples, make sure to add into the Project (or somewhere in the VS2019 Paths) the necessary files he often uses, such as: Irvine32.inc, Irvine32.lib, SmallWin.inc, VirtualKeys.inc, etc.

(Note: I am _NOT_ intentionally trying to advertise for Kip's books here, but he is one of the few Assembly resources still out there! Kip's single web page here is a goldmine for anyone wanted to do Assembly debugging under VS2019.)
