    Hello nj,

    Thanks for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

    You can add a Controller Class - Empty file from Controllers > right-click > Add > New Item > Installed > Visual C# > ASP .NET Core > Web > Controller Class – Empty.

    Or, you can add a MVC Controller - Empty file from Controllers > right-click > Add > Controller… > Installed > Controller > MVC Controller - Empty.

    Actually, with the update of Visual Studio, there are some improvements and changes for the layout, UI… So, as you can see, the ASP .NET Core type is listed(designed) under the Visual C#. You cannot change it, but if you want, if possible, you can suggest a feature directly to VS Product Team from here: Suggest a feature.

    Besides, it is obvious that the document should be updated and improved, I will then report this issue to VS Product Team.

    Feel free to let me know if you have any other concern.

    Sincerely,
    Tianyu
