Any other information Going to Extensions -> Manage extensions -> searching for AWS, no longer returns AWS Toolkit. It is only available in the Roaming extension manager, but this returns nothing useful.

I was able to resolve this issue, by upgrading Visual Studio to version 17.8. There was a minor issue logged on the install of 17.8, but it doesn't seem to cause any issues.

Actually the following issue is causing Visual studio not to work (even though I can install Codewhisperer for it now): Couldn't install Microsoft.visualCpp.Redist.14

I was able to resolve this, through multiple uninstalls and reinstalls and installing the redist separately and restarting machine, then finally installing the extension for windows application (that Visual studio suggested), even though it was a web project that was stuck in the unloaded state.

Thank you for reaching out. The Toolkit now requires 17.7 or later of Visual Studio, see https://github.com/aws/aws-toolkit-visual-studio/issues/375 for details. I will close this issue, since it sounds like you were able to install the Toolkit.
