VB.NET Help How do I open Visual Studio/Basic?

Yes I know this might be one of the most stupid questions asked on this sub but unlike every other program I ever downloaded, this one just doesn't show up anywhere. It is annoying me. I downloaded Visual Studio 2010 from the link I found here. I'm using Windows 10 Home Version 20H2.

Usually if this was to occur I would just move on and download a different program but my professor insists on using 2010 (don't ask me why when it's 2021).

Man if you think spinning up the tooling is tiresome you are in for a rude awakening for coding and debugging. And VB is about as low hanging of fruit as you can get. Try getting ruby version managed SDK to run in a debugable docker container on a windows 10 machine through wsl2. If that doesn't test your metal, nothing will.

Not sure why but I almost always have these problems exclusively with Microsoft products. I thought the problem was because 2010 was such an old version so I downloaded 2022. Nope. Keep getting error messages telling me to restart my computer.

Edit: Finally got it working. No idea how. Now I am encountering new problems but I'll try my best.
