Key Steps to Install Visual Studio


Step 1: Download Visual Studio:
1. Open a web browser on your computer.
2. Go to the official Visual Studio website: Visual Studio Downloads
3. Click on the "Download Visual Studio" button.
4. For Assembly Language programming with MASM, choose either Visual Studio
Community (free) or Visual Studio Professional.
5. Click on the "Download" button to start the download process.
Step 2: Run the Visual Studio Installer:
1. Once the download is complete, locate the downloaded file (usually in the Downloads
folder) and double-click it to run the installer.
2. If prompted by User Account Control, click "Yes" to allow the installer to make changes
to your device.
3. The Visual Studio Installer will launch. It will download necessary files and prepare for
installation.
Step 3: Select Workload:
1. In the Visual Studio Installer window, you will be presented with different workloads and
components to install.
2. Since we are interested in Assembly Language programming with MASM, select the
workload that includes Desktop development with C++.
3. Additionally, ensure that you select "Desktop development with C++" under the
"Workloads" tab.
4. Optionally, you can also choose individual components such as "Windows 10 SDK" for
additional features.
5. Make sure to include any components related to debugging or Assembly Language
support.
Step 5: Start Installation:
1. After selecting the desired workload and components, click on the "Install" button to start
the installation process.

Visual Studio.
Step 6: Install MASM Extension:
1. Once Visual Studio is launched, navigate to the "Extensions" menu and choose "Manage
Extensions".
2. In the Extensions window, search for "MASM" or "Microsoft Macro Assembler".
3. Select the MASM extension from the search results and click on the "Download" or
"Install" button to add it to Visual Studio.
4. Follow any additional prompts or instructions to complete the installation of the MASM
extension.
Step 7: Verify Installation:
1. Once the MASM extension is installed, create a new project by clicking on "File" >
"New" > "Project...".
2. In the "New Project" dialog, select "Assembly Language" under "Other Languages" or
"C++" if you selected that workload earlier.
3. Choose a template for your Assembly Language project (e.g., Empty Project) and click
"OK".
4. You should now see a new project created in Visual Studio, ready for Assembly
Language programming with MASM.
