I am working in SharePoint migration project from SP 2010 to SP 2019. I have upgraded the Visual Studio 2010 to Visual Studio 2019 solution. After upgraded the solution, I have updated the references to SP 2019 (i.e. dll path, layouts, aspx page and so on).

I am unable to open the Sequential Workflow in Visual Studio 2019. I got an error saying that "This version of Visual Studio no longer supports error loading workflow, Sequential and State Machine Workflows".

But according to the URL below, I can see, the Sequential WF template in Visual Studio 2019. But in my Visual Studio 2019, it is not available.

In the below video, I can see the SP 2010 styled workflow in Visual Studio 2012.

    You could find this information here:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/releases/2019/release-notes-v16.0
    You could try to reduce the version of visual studio.

    Thanks for your updates. I will check the option in VS 2017 and update the status.
