Visual Studio 2015: Create an Empty Project

Where is the Empty Project option within VS 2015?

There is no longer a "General" or "Other templates" category & is not visible under the basic list of C#/C++ options.

You can search too, it's quicker (VS2015): File > New > Project > [Search Installed Templates Empty] > Blank Solution.

For me it's the first solution choice.

The "Empty Project" template (if it can be called that) is now located under:

Installed → Visual (C#/C++/etc) → Windows → Classic Desktop

Empty Project will show up as a standard item within the alphabetically ordered list.

This is assuming you installed basic language templates when installing VS - otherwise, just pick your language & follow the prompts to install the necessary tools (+templates).
