VS release builds compile to native now by default; for easy Windows programming, you really can't beat C# and drawing the GUI (Windows Forms, not necessarily the new stuff). If the OP wants to learn what's needed for more complex GUI tasks (like for most non-simple applications), learning to build a GUI from source is kind of necessary though.
I've been looking into C# and VS2017 today along with VisualD. Reading through all this it looks like the simplest path is to learn C# and VS and go from there. I've found a pile of courses on LinkedIn that seem to build up to what I need. What makes me sad is that I have to drop D for at least the time being.
