Visual Studio Community Do the programs created with this, must be Open source? [closed]

Navigation

Previously I asked this question but I did not specify well what I was referring to since I had never asked here, in addition to not being able to answer with that "account". (I mention it so they do not mark me as "possible duplicate").

Use: Visual Studio Community, visual management basic.net and I'm the only developer.

My question is this: I made a program, but I would like your license to be proprietary Software or Freeware (I understand, it's basically the same thing). The terms I want to add are: You can distribute, use commercially, extract the material used that is not my property (under other licenses) BUT no modifications are allowed. IS IT POSSIBLE?

// I know that you can reverse engineer to see the code, I have already been mentioned, but at least I would like them not to directly modify my program //

I await your answers, thank you.

You should not have any problem with using VSC for the purpose you want to give your software, the license eula specifies it to be a single developer:

  
  • RIGHTS OF INSTALLATION AND USE.
    •   

    a. Individual license If you are a person who works on your own applications for the purposes of   sale or for any other purpose, you can use the software to   develop and test such applications.

    Restriction restrictions come in section 3 section C and these are more focused on the use of Mircrosoft logos and internal components of Visual Studio or third-party component licenses that you use in your program:

      

    c. Restrictions of distribution. You will not be able to:

         

    • use the brands of   Microsoft in the names of your applications in any way that   it would appear that its applications come from Microsoft or that it is   approves; or

         

    • modify or distribute the code source code   distributable so that any part of it is subject to a   license excluded. An "Excluded License" is a license that   requires, as a condition of use, modification or distribution of   code, which (i) is disclosed or distributed in the form of source code,   or that (ii) others have the right to modify it.

    You can see it here: Eula Visual Studio Community

    Which you can distribute your software without the need to include the source code.
