无法在 Visual Studio 中添加项目引用

Question

I'm on a new PC and I wanted to do a Coding Project. I wanted to code a Console App that uses your Clipboard. I searched on how to do that and got the answer that I should use System.Windows.Forms. But if I want to add a Project Reference, it doesn't show up the tab "Assemblies". I installed every version of .net core and framework. I just can't add a project reference. In the installation of VS I had not much Drive Space left, so I only checked the option .NET desktop development.

Answer 1

You have to Browse and include the file System.Windows.Forms.dll manually. In my case, that file is in the following folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework.NETFramework\v4.7.2
