void return type for main should never be used. As simple as that. http://www.stroustrup.com/bs_faq2.html#void-main

Actually in c++ only int main is used, remember we write return 0; to tell that code is ended properly, so main() function returns integer so int main is used. void main() is invalid in c++. But in c void main can also be used but it is not considered as a good practice, but it is okay to use void if your main() may not return any value.

If you wright int main , your program return value to operation system. void main - does not return value.
