but still can not find the preview button !

I can not find 'Markdown language service' either in Tools/Options. My screeshot is :

    Hi @TimKim, 

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A! 

    Are you using VS 2022 Preview or Release version? 

    Markdown is available in 17.5 Preview version, and you cannot use it in current release version 17.4 or earlier. 

    Sincerely,

    Anna
