Where is the exe file of the C# program under Visual Studio?

The latest version of VS Community 2019 is delivered. I compile a simple console program.

Actually, it is written everywhere that the exe file should be located in the bin\Debug\netcoreapp2.1 folder, or in Release (depending on the mode).

But as I did not try (running the application, building, building), the executable file is not in this folder. This folder contains only some files with the extension .pdb .json .dll

And in general, it is nowhere to be found. The program then runs in VS, but is executable the file is hidden somewhere. Question: where to?

The point was that I was creating a console application for the environment.Net Core.

This environment (as I understand it) is necessary for creating cross-platform applications, so the actual files .exe are not created.

To create executable files, you must use a different environment: .Net Framework
