What's New

• Fixed an issue that under some conditions, a hang occurs when opening the fonts and colors dialog.
• A fix was made to prevent a scalar memory load in the inline expansion of the std::round() functions from being changed into a vector access. Although the vector access does not change the result of the computation, it is longer and can fault when the scalar load would succeed.
• Fixed an issue where in versions of Visual C++ before Visual Studio 2022 version 17.9, the _Alignas specifier was not applied correctly according to the ISO-C Standard when it appeared adjacent to a structured type in a declaration.

Developer Community

• Multiple Startup Projects Not Saving Configuration and/or crashing Visual Studio
