No idea how to run cosmos in vs COSMOS is not a project type, cosmosboot1 is not a thing

[ClayCodeuser]

I have been trying to get cosmos OS shit up for two days now and I am not sure how. I have visual studio 25, visual studio 22, VMware workstation, and I am making a project and I don't see program.cs, when I run or debug it breaks, no vmware shows up, no qemu, no anything and I have atleast the kernel open but it still doesn't do shit when ran. There is nothing online about this and I've tried to follow the tutorial from years ago on instructables, and on cosmos and I don't know why it is not working.
So I didn't find cosmos anywhere made new projec

This isn't anything helpful

NEW TRY / ANOTHER WAY: I FOUND PROGRAM.CS

Then I ran the hollow run button

NO VMWARE at all not sure how to get this to work, atleast I found like
the console read lines and such but I cannot run it and that's the issue

the cosmos template does not use program.cs it will be under .net templates

Yes, I understand now. Thank you so much and have a great day.

Did you see #3208?

Thank you. I will try this. I admit that I didn't do a search for installing on2026 because I was trying to install on 2022 and what others told me. Have a great day.
