visual studio 2022 not showing errors

Question

I'm using visual studio 2022 with unity, and its not giving me anything relating to unity at all, and it also isn't showing me any errors either, and i'm having to flick back and forth to try and solve any problems in my code, can anyone help with this?

Hi @Bede Annetts , 

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A! 

Do you mean that there is no error squiggle in the code editor? 

If so, please enable the option “Show error squiggles” by going to Tools > Options > Text Editor > General. 

If I misunderstand, please share us some screenshots to investigate your issue further. 

Sincerely,

Anna

In Unity go to Preferences -> External tools -> External Script Editor and make sure Visual Studio version you are using is selected.

When next time you will open any script, VS will be able to connect to your project assembly and will be highlighting any mistakes in the code.
