I’m attempting to open a cloned git repo but half of it won’t open. It’s showing an “unknown item type” error. Can anyone tell me how to fix it? (SN: I’m on a Mac)

Hello, are you using Visual Studio or Visual Studio Code?
I’m using Visual Studio
Which version of Visual Studio are you using? What is the project type? Can you share us the Git repo link? Please ensure that you have installed relevant workloads or components to open it.
I just updated to the most recent version of Visual Code and the project is in .NET. Unfortunately, for contractual reasons, I’m not allowed to share the repo link

Please open the Visual Studio Installer > Modify > ensure that .NET desktop development and ASP.NET and web development workloads are installed.
I'm not sure how to modify it to make sure I have ASP.NET and web development

Can you find the window as the following?
As you said, you are on a MAC. Are you using the Visual Studio for MAC product?
Wait, I don't see this window. My window only says "Visual Code," not "Visual Code Community 2022."
Can you share me the screenshot to investigate it further?
This is what mine looks like

Anna

No one ever answered my question over there. I really need to get this up and running. Is anyone assigned to helping Mac users? Or are we just on our own and not a priority?
