Answer 1

A metro style app cannot have a console. You can use OutputDebugString() in a C++/CXX app to display debug text on the Visual Studio Output window, just like System.Diagnostics.Debug.Write does in a managed app. There are not a lot of approved winapi functions but OutputDebugString() is okay. Starting MSDN page is here.
