Visual Studio 2015 by default does not install C++. Try reinstalling VS2015 with Visual C++ components selected.

Hey LuckystarZZZ,

Good to hear that issue is resolved! 🙂

For guides i would suggest start reading here: [Introduction to C++ Programming in UE4 | Unreal Engine Documentation](https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/Programming/Introduction/index.html)

Then follow this tutorial:

> **[Programming Quick Start](https://docs.unrealengine.com/4.27/en-US/ProgrammingAndScripting/ProgrammingWithCPP/CPPProgrammingQuickStart/)**
>
> Create your first code project and add a new C++ class.

and finally go through Programming Tutorials:

> **[C++ Programming Tutorials](https://docs.unrealengine.com/4.27/en-US/ProgrammingAndScripting/ProgrammingWithCPP/CPPTutorials/)**
>
> Step-by-step instructional guides for hands-on learning of programming in Unreal Engine.

And also make sure to check out Rama’s C++ Entry Level guide.:

> **[A new, community-hosted Unreal Engine Wiki](https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/a-new-community-hosted-unreal-engine-wiki/141494)**
