This is my own opinion and not Windows.
This feature will never work on a developer machine as "by design" devs build untusted binaries.
I've also reverse engineered events as we run into it, too, as greatly increases the cost of things that load lots of binaries.

It turns off after 48 hours if it sees untrusted binaries, but you can fast track by switching it off directly via Smart App Control in Settings.

We've been working for a while on a vision of what Visual Studio looks like in the future, and first insiders build of 2026 represents one of our first steps towards that.
On top of being gorgeous with its modern Fluent UI, this build one of the fastest releases we've released, with more to come.

Can you expand on the "accidentally installed the wrong version"?
Visual Studio can update its reference to Documents in options, need to uninstall/reinstall.

Probably puts us at a severe disadvantage, but I am interested in where you thinking we are are slower.

My first thought was the comparing value type against null warning Roslyn added over the old compiler, but I don't think you can bang (!) your way out of that.
Next thought is maybe R# or something complaining about comparing a non-nullable value against null and the bangs silence it?
