Visual Studio Community 2019 is listed as "Not Available" for download. I've been able to access it for years but something must have recently changed.
Ideally I use 2022 but edit and continue doesn't want to work. Under Visual Basic in my case.

Hello @Sam Ryan,
If you have a paid level subscription, you can continue downloading VS Community 2019 from here: VS Community 2019.
Ideally I use 2022 but edit and continue doesn’t want to work.
Could you please share more details about this issue?
"Edit and Continue" feature is now called Hot Reload. Did you check this document: Configure Edit and Continue (C#, VB, C++) to enable and configure it?
Is this issue reproducible?
BTW, here's a similar thread: How to download VS studio 2019.
@Sam Ryan,
Do you have any further concerns? Please feel free to let us know if there is anything that we can help here:)
Hi Tianyu,
I followed the document and all my settings were already checked.
It's reproducable. The error is "ENC0005: Updating the Handles clause of method requires restarting the application"
See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/products/visual-studio-2019
VS 2019 is out-of-support since April 2024 and therefore there is no longer a public download available, only with a paid subscription.
