Well, I just have to share this with whosoever is desperately looking for a solution to this problem and happens to stumble across this post.
It’s not easy being a newbie in any thing, and computing is no exception.
I have written a small program that I will be using for my work in the office and which would also benefit a few staffers. I wrote it in C++ and compiled it using Visual Studio. However, I couldn’t find the executable file (*.exe) anywhere on my computer!
I went over to the MSDN site, as well as StackOverflow, looking for a solution but there was none in sight. To make matters worse, I discovered that MANY beginner programmers were facing the same issue.
Then I found this video on YouTube – and voilá! – problem solved. The answer to my question is ridiculously straightforward; indeed, ignorance is very costly.
If you’re in a bind like I was, I hope this works for you the way it did for me!
