I have a Static Void Main in c# but keep getting the CS5001 Error

Question

This is the most basic code there is. I'm working in visual studio 17.5.4, ASP.NET is 17.5.318.41597.

Im not new to programming but I'm new to c# and visual studio so I dunno if there is some weird setting or something I am not seeing.

using System;

class HelloWorld
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Hello World");
    }
}

I certainly can't reproduce this. Is there anything else in your project? What's in your project file? Is that really the code you're trying to compile? — Etienne de Martel, Apr 22 '23 at 21:34
The issue was the type of project it was, I can't remember what the type was in the project I was trying to run this code, but I had to use the windows console app project type. — ConfusedAF, Apr 22 '23 at 21:43

Try going to the solution manager tab and then right-click on the application and properties, then try to change put the class as initialization object.
