I am following an online tutorial to learn MVC for .net. When I right click on the project and click "Add Item", I can't find Json or App Settings file neither under C# or in the search box. How can I restore that? I already checked under the Visual Studio 2022 installer (Community Edition), ASP.NET and web development is checked. Also under "Individual components", .net 8 and 9 are checked.image_2025-07-29_092530696

    If you are learning C#, then create a new project, selecting the C# language instead of F#.

    I found the issue. I had selected an F# project by mistake instead of C#. All good now.
