    You have to choose "ASP.NET and web development" manually when installing,

    Hi @Shyam Kumar ,
    Do you find "ASP.NET Web Application"? If you have it, you need to click it and select mvc or webapi in it. If you don't have, you need to add "ASP.NET and web development" when you install the VS.

    Best regards,
