That community edition by default makes huge executables, even the classic "Hello World" job.? Mainly due to all the unwanted "phone home" embedded code.? (You can disable that, but...)
Also, if your PC is part of a network "Domain", MS-VC will cost you money, especially if you are not in the USA.
I've used "Code::Blocks" for C/C++ coding at work on Windows to great effect, also using NI GPIB libraries.
The executables are small and fast compared to what MS's VC spits out, and is also more easily portable between OS platforms (save for the NI Lib's.)
For hobby work, and much "Work" work too, there are a lot of very good FOS* dev tools out there.? (* Free Open Source.)
No need to "Pay the man" if you don't want to.
Regards to All.
