After installing VS 2026 via VS Installer, the program stopped appearing in the installer.

After VS 2026 was released, I uninstalled VS 2022 using the VS Installer and installed VS 2026. After restarting my PC, VS 2026 no longer appeared in the installer. What could be the problem? Is it possible to attach the 2026 version to the installer?
