Hello @Joseph,
Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.
Please firstly close all VS instances, reboot your machine, and run VS as administrator.
If it doesn’t work, kindly try following methods:
- Check if there’s any limitation on your machine such as antivirus, group policy(GPO), and permission limitation. Probably, something blocks VS from loading/opening. Besides, are you using any application which may block VS from launching?
- Search
Developer Command Prompt for Visual Studio 2022
in Windows Search box, click to run it. Rundevenv /ResetSettings
command to reset VS settings. - To narrow down this issue, please try to clean boot Windows OS and relaunch VS.
Best Regards,
Tianyu
