MSVC is a C++ compiler toolchain and it does not contain any JavaScript. You're thinking of VSCode, probably, but your comment was an off-topic rant either way.

Microsoft visual studio the IDE (not vs code the electron program) has lots of javascript processes running in the background doing all sorts of things.

Also my comment was a single sentence with a single fact so it can't be a rant.

MSVC is also completely different from Visual Studo. It’s OK to say you were wrong. You don’t have to be angry online. I promise!

It can and does refer to the IDE first. I'll prove it to your by showing that it's the first result of a search.

Seems like projection. Since it's ok to be wrong I guess you'll reply with an apology.
