• Fix issue with CMake Overview Pages and CMakeSettings editor being stuck on “Waiting for IntelliSense to finish initializing…”
• Corrected an issue where a templated destructor involved in a class hierarchy with data member initializers may be instantiated too early, potentially leading to incorrect diagnostics about uses of undefined types or other errors.
• Added Python 3.9.7 to Python workload. Removed Python 3.7.8 due to a security vulnerability.
• Fixed an issue where the Find Next (F3) and Find Next Selected (Ctrl+F3) would sometimes jump to the first occurrence in the file instead of the next occurrence.
• Resolve issue where dates in version control user interfaces were not respecting the customer’s operating system locale.
• Address an issue on Windows 11 where customers set the Windows Terminal as default and the debugger can’t stop debugging a console app properly and prevent future starts.
