How Can I get Steam id And Then Get Steam Username?

Hi All So I was Studying Steam API, And Now I want to Get The Steam id And User name Using Steam API (64bit) First I've read this on Steam Website: https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/api/ISteamFriends#GetPersonaName And Then it Didn't Work So I Searched More And Then Found This: Steam API getting persona name this didn't work again and has a compile error: E0140 too many arguments in function call. Then I found this: How to retrieve Steam username using SteamWorks API? even this didn't work again and when I run my project Visual Studio Says:The Visual Studio Error in Runtime So now I don't know What to do Please Help Me

    CSteamID id = SteamUser()->GetSteamID();
    const char* pchName = SteamFriends()->GetPersonaName(id);
    std::cout << SteamFriends()->GetPersonaName();
    std::cout << pchName;

Unfortunately I am not using Visual Studio ... But this C++ code works great in both Linux and Windows:

    #include <cstdlib>
    #include <cstdio>
    #include <iostream>
    #include <chrono>
    #include <thread>
    #include <fstream>
    
    #include <steam_api.h>
    
    void close_steam() {
        SteamAPI_Shutdown();
    }
    
    void program() {
        if (!SteamAPI_Init() ) {
            std::cerr << "Steam's API could not be initialized!\n";
            std::cerr << "Ensure that Steam is running on the same user account...\n";
            std::exit(1);
        }
    
        atexit(close_steam);
    }
    
    int main() {
        program();
        const char* pchName = SteamFriends()->GetPersonaName();
        std::cout << pchName;
    }

Use GetPersonaName() call without parameter 'id'.

const char* pchName = SteamFriends()->GetPersonaName();
