C++

I am following the Programming Quick Start Guide. On this step:

“This will automatically create a simple, blank project with only essential C++ code in the solution, and it will automatically open inside both the Unreal Editor and Visual Studio.”

when I create the blank project, it opens in Unreal Editor, and opens a command prompt to
C:\Program File (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\BuildTools> but Visual Studio does not open.

If I close the Editor and open the existing project, it does not bring up the command prompt or Visual Studio at all.

When I go to File > Open Visual Studio it just opens the command prompt but not Visual Studio.

Visual Studio 2017 is installed with C++ and Unreal Engine components.
