I reinstalled the c++ in visual studio  "C++ for Desktop development" and reopened the file.

error : Designtime build failed for project 'G:\Documents\Visual Studio 2019\Arduino\My_application\My_application\My_application.vcxproj' configuration 'Debug|Win32'. IntelliSense might be unavailable.
     Set environment variable TRACEDESIGNTIME = true and restart Visual Studio to investigate.

You are working on an update, so I give you some more information about my experience. When I want to open an cpp file. I open it form #include what openens the header file. So when I need to open the cpp, I need to open it from the browser and drag it in to visual studio. Intellisens is not working than. I did before, but sometimes there where some difficulties. I think the correct way would be from the solution explorer. That's what I found out now. Feel like a kid again.  Grin

In Visual code, the esp-idf don't use the parser

By default, IntelliSense is present, but the environment may not give any indication if there is a problem. To fix that, go to .vscode > settings.json and set the C_Cpp.intelliSenseEngine to Default. Previously it was set to ‘Tag Parser.’ Now if there is an error in the main.c file, a red wavy line appears beneath that code.

Thanks for the updates, and we will let you know as soon as there are any available improvements.

Integration with VSCode for IDF is different to the integration within Visual Studio for the Arduino core, and we are working through the changes for the update in the coming week.

Does visual micro uses any .Net framework?

I have installed

.NET Framework 4.5.2 targeting pack
.NET Framework 4.6.2 targeting pack
.NET Framework 4.7.2 targeting pack
.NET Framework 4.8 targeting pack

And what C and C++ version is in use. I think this is some important information.

No .NET workloads or components are needed for Visual Micro to run, just the C++ Desktop workload needs to be installed.

I changed it once in the debug document configuration. Can't get it right anymore. It keeps using that selected c and c++ version from visual studio. I changed it because I was thinking that C14 was selected in vm, because of the strlen and const array size.

By uninstalling vm, keeps settings form the previous installation I think. If that's true... Is there a way to reset those settings or just delete those setting files after uninstaller it?

Didn't respond on your question properly...

For the filesystem header issues, does this only present as an intellisense issue, and can you provide an example?

Yes, it is only an intellisense issue. also for the strlen and const array size. it even compiles when compiler->warnings for library is ON.
