Prior Release Notes

Uninstalling the current release

We update Visual Studio so that you get the latest bug fixes. If you need to go back to the previous release, you must uninstall your current installation and use the links below to revert your Visual Studio state. This article describes how to do so.

Note

We provide servicing fixes only for the latest released version and for the servicing baselines that are supported for an extended length of time. Before attempting to install a previous version of Visual Studio 2019, refer to our support policy. Microsoft does not guarantee support outside of this policy.

  1. On Windows, open the Visual Studio Installer.
  2. Uninstall all instances of Visual Studio 2019 listed in the Visual Studio Installer.
  3. From Programs and Features in the Control Panel, find "Microsoft Visual Studio 2019", and uninstall it.

If you are unable to follow the steps above due to a corrupted install, follow the steps to Remove Visual Studio with the InstallCleanup.exe tool

Please note, uninstalling Visual Studio will not remove standalone products and components such as .NET, SQL, IIS, VC++ Redistributables, and SDKs. These may need to be removed manually from Programs and Features in the Control Panel.

Installing an earlier release

You can either create and use an offline installation, or you can download and launch one of the installers below directly.

To create an offline installation, follow the instructions at Create an offline installation of Visual Studio, replacing the bootstrapper files referenced in the document with the versions below.

If your organization has standardized on a particular servicing baseline of Visual Studio 2019, we recommended staying current with the latest servicing release of that supported baseline. The minor versions that have been declared as supported servicing baselines for Visual Studio 2019 are: 16.4, 16.7 and 16.9. Refer to our support policy for additional information.
