When I try to build my solution, I get the following error:
Visual Studio cannot start debugging because the debug target 'c:\target' is missing. Please >build the project and retry, or set the OutputPath and AssemblyName properties appropriately >to point at the correct location for the target assembly.
My output path is set correctly to bin\Debug, but the exe is never created in that folder. Instead, all I get are the exe.config, vshost.exe, and vshost.exe.config files.
Any idea what's going on?

To set Visual Studio debugger options, select Tools > Options, and under Debugging select or deselect the boxes next to the General options. You can restore all default settings with Tools > Import and Export Settings > Reset all settings.
Unable to start without debugging. The startup project cannot be launched. Ensure that the correct project is set as the startup project. The startup project can be changed by selecting the 'Set as Startup Project' command from the right click menu in Solution Explorer.
In Solution Explorer, right-click the project and choose Properties. In the Configuration list, choose Debug or Release. In the side pane, choose Linker > Debugging, then select options for Generate Debug Info. In most C++ projects, the default value is Generate Debug Information (/DEBUG).
Make sure that output path of project is correct (Project > Properties > Build > Output path)
Go in menu to Build > Configuration Manager, and check if your main/entry project has checked Build. If not, check it.
Go to properties > Application , and select the output type of your project
