Description

Hi,

Following the instructions, I installed VS 2026 CE from the link in the README and was greeted with the following pop-up when using the vs2022.vsconfig:

I will switch to VS 2022 as recommended for now, but it might be a reasonable idea to make a note in the readme and to adjust the link of VS to point to the 2022 version.

Research direction

Start with the README instructions and the vs2022.vsconfig file, then compare the linked Visual Studio download target with the packages required by the config. Done means the setup guidance points to a compatible Visual Studio version and clearly notes the supported choice for Community Edition users.
