Neither my custom HTML snippets or the default Microsoft ones are loading

Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2022 (64-bit) - Current

Version 17.4.3

Here are some of the errors visible in the console:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Professional\Web\Snippets\HTML\1033\HTML\html.snippet: Missing or unspecified Language attribute

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Professional\Web\Snippets\HTML\1033\ASP.NET\checkbox.snippet: Missing or unspecified Language attribute

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Professional\Web\Snippets\HTML\1033\ASP.NET\repeater.snippet: Missing or unspecified Language attribute

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Professional\Web\Snippets\HTML\1033\ASP.NET\validationsummary.snippet: Missing or unspecified Language attribute

\Documents\Visual Studio 2022\Code Snippets\Visual Web Developer\My HTML Snippets\html.snippets.xml.snippet: Missing or unspecified Language attribute

I checked for example the code of html.snippet from microsoft:

<CodeSnippet Format="1.1.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/2005/CodeSnippet">
  <Header>
    <Title>html</Title>
    <Author>Microsoft Corporation</Author>
    <Shortcut>html</Shortcut>
    <Description>Markup snippet for a html element</Description>
    <SnippetTypes>
      <SnippetType>Expansion</SnippetType>
      <SnippetType>SurroundsWith</SnippetType>
    </SnippetTypes>
  </Header>
  <Snippet>
    <Code Language="html"><![CDATA[<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
    <head><title></title></head>
    <body>$selected$$end$</body>
</html>]]></Code>
  </Snippet>
</CodeSnippet>

Language is set.

Not of the snippets show in the HTML editor.

    Hi @dron andrei marian, 

    I tested on the latest version of VS2022 Community version 17.6.5. It works fine.

    Please update your VS and try again. 

    Sincerely,

    Anna
