The code is:
Console.WriteLine("Hello, World!");Console.ReadKey();
And it gives me this error:
Cannot read keys when either application does not have a console or when console input has been redirected. Try Console.Read

what kind of application are you building? does it have a visual ui? – Daniel A. White Jan 26 '22 at 18:41

why do you want to use Console.ReadKey();? use Console.Read() or Console.ReadLine(); instead . – Amjad S. Jan 26 '22 at 18:44

When creating a new Project in Visual Studio, make sure to select a Console Application Type as your Project Template.
It is possible to change the Project Type after creating a Project through the Project Properties, but since it looks like you are starting from scratch, you might want to restart with a new project template.

I havent opened a new project, I opened a folder, then created a new terminal and typed `dotnet new console` . Have i done something wrong? – bitProgrammer Jan 26 '22 at 18:55

Interesting, that should work. Which platform are you running on? – permissionBRICK Jan 26 '22 at 19:01

Maybe check the outputType in the csproj File, it should be Exe for Console Apps in .NET Core. You can also try to add:
true if it keeps changing to WinExe – permissionBRICK Jan 26 '22 at 19:06
