When answering a question please:

Read the question carefully.
Understand that English isn't everyone's first language so be lenient of bad spelling and grammar.
If a question is poorly phrased then either ask for clarification, ignore it, or edit the question and fix the problem. Insults are not welcome.
Don't tell someone to read the manual. Chances are they have and don't get it. Provide an answer or move on to the next question.

To be honest, any of them.
A competent programmer can pick up and use 90% of any language in an afternoon, maybe a day.

But that's only a small part of the story - behind the language is the framework on which it depends, and learning enough of that to be a competent developer in that language / framework combination is a massive task - .NET for example has over 40,000 classes, many of which you will need in any field of programming!

And for someone new to the field there is an even bigger hurdle to cross: getting the mindset of development sorted. And without that, you will not produce anything usable. Unfortunately, developing the mindset takes a long time for some people - we have "developers" here that even after a couple of years have no idea how to fix a simple program when it doesn't work!

While it's possible to write a fairly complicated console app in C after a just few weeks, it won't be maintainable, it won't be pretty - and very few people write console apps any more! Writing an app for Windows, Android, or iOS adds a very steep learning curve!

Sorry, but there really isn't any shortcut here: this is a complex field of study, and it can't be rushed.

Knowing a language is not knowing programming.
Programming is :
1) device an algorithm.
2) translate the algorithm with a language.
If you don't learn algorithms you will not progress in programming.

You have to know that you can do pretty much anything in any language, simply some languages are harder for beginners because there is more pitfalls to handle.
You need to master a set of techniques that are the basis of the job and are not linked to a language.

Advices:
- Start with an easy/safe language: VB, Java, C#, not C or C++. I do not recommend to start with Python either because of the usage of indentation.
- Read documentation / Follow tutorials (a lot of them)
- Start with tiny/useless projects, the purpose is to learn programming, not doing something useful.
- Start with console mode programs (no fancy graphics, no mouse)
- Learn debugger (an incredible learning tool)
Debugger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[^]

- A problem ? Google is your friend.
- Learn one or more analyze methods, E.W. Djikstra/N. Wirth Stepwize Refinement/top-Down method is a good start.

There is no shortcut to knowledge, no one can learn for you, you are the only one that can do it.
Remember the exercises and little projects are not here to make something useful, they are here to teach you programming.
