how can I make a stand-alone exe in Visual Studio. Its just a simple Console application that I think users would not like to install a tiny Console application. I compiled a simple cpp file using the visual studio command prompt. Will the exe work even if the .NET framework is not installed? I used native C++ code.

After a developer writes the C# code, he or she compiles their code. This results in Common Intermediate Language stored within Portable Executable (PE for 32-bit, PE+ for 64-bit) files such as “.exe” and “. dll” files for Windows.
In Visual Studio, select File > Open > Project. In the Open Project dialog box, select All Project Files, if not already selected, in the dropdown next to File name. Navigate to the .exe file, select it, and select Open.
Inside your project folder their is a bin folder. Inside your bin folder, there are 2 folders, a Release and a Debug. For your polished .exe, you want to go into your Release folder.
I'm not quite sure if thats what youre asking

Anything using the managed environment (which includes anything written in C# and VB.NET) requires the .NET framework. You can simply redistribute your .EXE in that scenario, but they'll need to install the appropriate framework if they don't already have it.
