Microsoft Visual Studio 2022 version 17.0 was generally available on November 8, 2021, and continues adding new features & improvements to it. Now the company releases Visual Studio 2022 version 17.1 Preview 5, which brings several bug fixes.

 

In this context, it is worth noting that Visual Studio 2022 is the first version of the IDE that is available as a 64-bit app and thus it is not limited to ~4GB of memory in the main devenv.exe process.
