Visual Studio 2019 not underlining errors in C++ projects - c++

I would like VS2019 to underline errors in real time, so when I compile, I do not get errors that could have otherwise been detected before the build process.
Currently, I have to build to get the errors, and nothing gets underlined; I have to use the ErrorList to find the errors. It is messing with my workflow. Android Studio and Eclipse both underline errors in real time, and I would like to know how to get Visual Studio 2019 to do the same for C++ projects.
I have checked settings in Tools->Options->TextEditor->C++->Acvanced. The settings look correct.

Visual studio 2015 not compile changes c++

from some time visual c++ compiler not compiling my code, I tried to do things that are there: Visual Studio 2013 C++ not compiling changes
Cleaning soultion works in my case, but after compilation i must do it again and so always. I saw also Build solution options and build configuration and there are OK. I moved project, delete execute file but it also not helped me.
What I can do to fix it? :(

Cannot compile on 64 bit configuration in visual studio

I am trying to compile a new c++ project in Visual Studio 2015.
I can compile perfectly in 32 bit configuration but when I change the configuration to 64 bit, compilation crashes with a dialogue box showing message "Microsoft c/c++ Compiler Driver has stopped working"
This is the error showing in the logs
Error MSB6006 "CL.exe" exited with code -1073741701.
I tried repairing and reinstalling VS several times but did no good to me.
This the behaviour of any file I am trying to compile. Projects which were working on Visual Studio 2013 are now not compilable.
Please help. I am stuck in this issue for weeks
EDIT: I found that the compiler used in 64 is x86_amd64\cl.exe, if this means anything to you
EDIT: I tried to compile using x86_amd64\cl.exe through command line and it succeeded there

Visual Studio 2015 hangs when compiling and linking projects

I recently made the change to Visual Studio 2015 from Visual Studio 2012 as my compiler for my c++ projects. After making this change I have noticed that visual studio will frequently hang in the build process.
This never occurred with Visual Studio 2012. The hangups are at random points and do not occur at the same build points in my projects.
When I ran VS in administrator mode and got all of the cl.exe's and link.exe's to appear as command prompts I was able to see when they hung. And there were no errors thrown or anything.
The only way I have successfully worked around this issue is by setting Visual Studio's build process to only process one project at a time and use only one compilation simultaneously. However I cant maintain this as my build time is somewhere around 3-4 hours (Yes, this is a HUGE project).
I think this is a duplicate of Visual Studio 2015 Win64 hangs during solution build. I posted an answer there. In short, there may be a patch that resolves the issue:

Tried renaming a managed c++ project in Visual Studio, getting resource errors now

I tried renaming a c++ project in Visual Studio and I'm now getting the following errors:
An unhandled exception of type
'System.Resources.MissingManifestResourceException' occurred in
mscorlib.dll
Additional information: Could not find any resources appropriate for
the specified culture or the neutral culture. Make sure
"OuiDesktop.PreForm.resources" was correctly embedded or linked into
assembly "OuiProject" at compile time, or that all the satellite
assemblies required are loadable and fully signed.
I get this for every each form that uses a resource. If I comment these lines of code out that raise this error, the program launches okay, but I need the resources.
What have i done wrong? Seems renaming a project in Visual Studio is a nightmare!!
These .resources files are being created in the build directory just fine, just not being included in the assembly!
I was using Visual Studio Express 2010 on this machine. Creating a new project and adding the source files back into that in Express didn't work.
I tried this same fix on another machine with full Visual Studio 2010 Professional and it worked perfectly.

Visual Studio 11 Ultimate Static Analysis Shows No Output

So Microsoft released a trial version of Visual Studio 11 Ultimate Developer Preview. I decided to try out the static code analysis feature.
I successfully updated my solution to 2011 and get my project file to build.
However when I try to run the 'Run Code Analysis For Solution' it then proceeds to simply build the solution/project but display no output in the code analysis window (even if I've hacked the code to make sure it should show some errors).
I did have Visual Studio 2010 previously installed and I wonder if that's affecting it?
Any help or anyone ran into similar issue?
*EDIT:
I made a sample project and in it the code analysis works... I'm not sure what I'm missing from my old migrated project to enable it. (I've done the obvious and enabled Static Analysis in the configuration properties menu)
First check which build toolset do you use.
For upgraded project it is Visual Studio 2010 by default.
However when I did similar exercise with my project it didn't compile after switching to VC11 compiler - there were some issues with include paths I had to resolve.
