DirectX Visual Studio templates don't Work

I installed a bunch of visual studio directx templates and none of them seems to work. They all throw an error like: "Error: this template attempted to load component assembly 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.Universal.TemplateWizards, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'. For more information on this problem and how to enable this template, please see documentation on Customizing project templates." (This one in particular shows up for direct3d uwp Game template). I tried troubleshooting the existing .vstemplate file but I don't know whats wrong.

The template doesn't open, and I tried everything I know please help

screenshot of said error also "tamam" means okay

To use the DirectX-VS-Templates you need to have the "Universal Windows Platform" workload installed with VS 2017 or VS 2019. It provides the Microsoft.VisualStudio.Universal.TemplateWizards component.

This is true of both the UWP and Win32 templates in that GitHub project.

For the Direct3D UWP templates which use C++, you need to have the "Universal Windows Platform" workload and the "C++ Universal Windows Platform tools" optional component installed.

This is documented in the readme.
