I've been meaning to learn either C++ or C#, and from the latter I have no previous experience with.

I generally want to create simple desktop application and games, so what would you think would be more suitable and/or easier to get a hang of for me?

C# definitely.
If you've tried Java, you'll get a familiar feeling.

Provided I already own an IDE for both of these languages, where do you suggest learning it from? The basics I mean.

Honestly, I didn't look at any tutorials for C# - but a good resource for learning .NET from is the MSDN, if you prefix what you're searching for with c# you generally get things for c#

Example search term: 'json encode'

Resultant search term: 'c# json encode'

But you have to be sure you don't get the wrong thing, like ASP.NET results. (ASP.NET is like C# I've heard)

Plus, if you use Visual Studio, they usually have a nice built in help system.

Yeah java is kinda similar so you might be good if you have done java before.

C# is ew, just like Java.

If you want to make applications, go with C++.

Consoles in any IDE work fine for simpler stuff, and for fancy GUI based applications, I'd get Qt.

It's simple to learn and efficient.

^

Sharing it on public sites is, afaik.

Which is exactly why I share all of my software on unindexed sites.

just use Python and a Qt binding, much faster development and cleaner, only use C++ if you need the speed
