Visual Studio does not display .NET Core 2.2 in Target Framework dropdown

I was having the same issue after downloading the latest dotnet-SDK-2.2.202 (at the moment). Tried everything on this thread and nothing worked.

I also recently updated to the latest VStudio 2017 - 15.9.11

Then I downloaded and installed the previous dotnet-SDK-2.2.105 available and it fixed the issue.

Find it here: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/2.2

.net core SDK 2.2.202 requires MS build 16 to work. So you would need to install Visual Studio 2019.
