how to install VS 2017 Enterprise on PC with VS 2022 Community
Hi All. I have VS 2022 Community installed on my PC. Is it possible to install VS 2017 Enterprise and overwrite the Community version, or is it possible to have both versions on the same PC? If possible, only one version. What needs to be done to properly install VS 2017 Enterprise. Thanks

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.
Please kindly check Viorel‘s answer and let us know if you have any further concerns.
Visual Studio can be installed side-by-side, so for your questions:
Is it possible to install VS 2017 Enterprise and overwrite the Community version, or is it possible to have both versions on the same PC?
Yes, it is possible to install VS 2017 Enterprise on a machine with VS 2022 Community installed. Installing VS 2017 Enterprise will not overwrite the VS 2022 Community version, and it is possible to have both versions on the same PC.
If possible, only one version. What needs to be done to properly install VS 2017 Enterprise.
To properly install VS 2017 Enterprise, you just need to install it, no other things need to be done.
If you don't want to use VS 2022 Community, you can uninstall VS 2022 separately from VS Installer. There's no impacts.
For example, I have three versions of VS installed side-by-side on my machine.
Sincerely,
Tianyu
