Now choose the file that you want to open

Note: In this C programming tutorial i want to tell my viewers that  you can not open multiple main files in single project. If you do it then your files won't compile. This is because every file would contain main function and as computer is dumb machine, it does not get that what file we are trying to compile. So always compile on one file at a time and remove other unnecessary files.

Final words:

I hope that this c++ tutorial of shapes in C would have taught you in how to make project file in visual studio.
