Want to truly start your Microsoft Visual Studio C++ Console project without anything predefined. You can turn off Precompiled Headers using these steps.

Note: This option is only available on C++ Windows Console Application projects.

  1. Open your project, then select “Project” > “appname Properties…“.
  2. Expand “Configuration Properties” > “C/C++” > “Precompiled Headers“.
  3. Set “Precompiled Header” to “Not Using Precompiled Headers“.
