C/C++ and C# are very different in that manner!
However it has nothing to do with Visual Studio!
For C/C++ to tun on (almost )any machine you have to restrict you usage of non-standard C/C++ features and libraries...(and maybe you can get away better with GNU compiler)
For C# you need the .NET framework to e installed or Mono for non Windows platforms. In this case too you have to check that all you methods of framework are supported by the installed .NET layer...
