Good day guys
I am having a problem running my Windows Application Forms in Visual Basic. It keeps on giving me this error: Visual Studio cannot start debugging because the debug target ( My location for saving files\Projects\WindowsApplication2\bin\Debug\WindowsApplication2.exe) is mission. Please build the project and retry, or set the OutputPath and AssemblyName properties appropraitely to point at the correct loation for the target assembly.
I have tried to build the project but i cant get anything from it. Can someone please assist me with steps to solve this issue. I am using Visual Basic/ Visual Studio 2013
Thank you

Welcome to this forum.
Please make sure that output path of project is correct (Project > Properties > Build > Output path)
Go to Build > Configuration Manager, and make sure the project has selected the Build.
Then rebuild the project and see.

hi Fletcher
Thanks for the help. I managed to fix it with the solution. One more thing, what version of Python do i need to run it with Visual Studio?
I have Python 3.6 at the moment but as soon as i want to open it via visual basic i get the error: Unsupported Python version 3.6
Thank you

May I ask you which version of Visual Studio you are using, VS2017 or VS2015 ?
For Visual Studio 2015 and earlier you need to separately install a Python interpreter of your choice (Python 3.5 and earlier; 3.6 is not supported and will generate the message "Unsupported Python version 3.6").
