I can't test it out because renaming test.cpp to test.c means I break everything. If I double click 'test.c', the Visual Studio opens to show me the file, but there is no green arrow (it's grey) to compile/build. I hate fancy programming font ends.

Anyway. I believe you. Microsoft (and every other fancy programming tool is evil).
If you care: VS will only compile things that are in projects. Put your test.c file in a project, you'll be able to build it, and away you go.
