Verify the install

Verify the install

- [Instructor] Now that we've run the installer, let's verify the Visual Studio and the components were installed. One simple way to do that is, in Windows, to go to the start menu and type in the word "Visual" and see what appears. This is a different computer than the one I ran the installer on in the previous video. You can see on this computer, I've got Visual Studio 2022 and Visual Studio 2019 installed. You can also see I have Visual Studio Code, and I have the Visual Studio installer. If I run the installer, I can modify any of my existing installs. I can add new additions or older versions. On the right side of the screen is Windows PowerShell. Here I might want to verify that my NuGet package manager is working, or in this case, I wanted to verify that the .NET runtime was installed and the .NET tooling was installed. So I typed in the word dotnet here and ran it, and because I got an answer, I didn't get an error, I know that .NET is installed correctly.
