Hello, is this posible to use Visual Studio 2019 as one of previous versions without installing each?
I need it for SDL2 library for C++.
If yes, how?

Hello @Meib-2006 ,

Thank you for posting this issue in Microsoft Q&A forum.

It is not available to use VS 2019 as one of previous versions without installing each.

You need to install the previous versions to use previous versions of VS 2019, which means install two different minor Visual Studio versions on one machine is available, but use one version of VS as previous version is not available.(Install minor Visual Studio versions side-by-side)

BTW, currently, Visual Studio doesn’t support roll-back. (Introduce the ability to roll back a Visual Studio Update)

Best Regards,
Tianyu
