Ideally, after this everything will be fine. But C++ can be a tricky language for newbies. If you are still content with this (seeking help a little now and then), then C++ is fine.
Now, I really suggest you drop the Win32 API tutorial and go download Qt. It's written for C++, it's portable and it's a heck of a lot simpler than the Win32 API (which is a mess).
