It all makes sense in my mind. Until VS2019 goes RTM it's not recognised, unless you specifically ask for it. This means up till that moment, all default builds will use the latest RTM, which is VS2017. From a corporate perspective this makes a lot of sense, nobody wants accidents. I've said this before, until it [VS2019] goes RTM it's as a matter of principle unstable. So have I jumped the gun by prematurely installing the preview?
Yes and no, I would say. degski -- *Microsoft, please kill Paint3D*
