'Visual Studio 2022 not showing up in the dropdown
We have on-prem Azure DevOps 2020 installed. We built a .net core 6 app in Visual Studio 2022. However, when creating the build pipeline, VS 2022 is not showing up in the dropdown.
Has anyone faced this problem? Is MSFT supposed to release a patch that will start displaying VS 2022 in the dropdown?

Many people are running into this. No word from MS yet on when or if an update will be available. But these articles may help you find a workaround:
- How do I update my Azure DevOps on-premise Pipeline tasks to include MSBuild v17 and Visual Studio 2022?

- https://github.com/microsoft/azure-pipelines-agent/issues/3662
FWIW, I'm working around it by using an explicit MSBuild path as mentioned in this answer. I added a PreferredMSBuildExePath variable to my pipeline and set it equal to %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Professional\MSBuild\Current\Bin\amd64\MSBuild.exe. Then I made all my MSBuild steps use $(PreferredMSBuildExePath) as their MSBuild path under Specify Location. I also converted all my Visual Studio steps to MSBuild steps so I could use this explicit path variable.
