Visual Studio LNK1561 Error Point Must be defined

Question

Hi I am getting a linker error when im trying to make a GUI application in Windows. Ive done some research found that it was a linker issue so I changed my Subsystem to Windows(/SUBSYTEM:WINDOWS) and went to Advanced and changed my entry point to main but im still getting the same error.

Steps in visual studio. That ive done so far

1. Go to project -> properties
2. In configuration properties click on linker
3. Go to System change the subSystem to Windows(/SUBSYTEM:WINDOWS) hit apply
4. then under linker again click on Advanced then EntryPoint change to main

Those are all the steps that all the tutorials and staq overflow told me to do and its still not working.

If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it

Thank you!
