No VS2019 installed on the VS2019 VM Images

There's an issue when provisioning VM with VS2019 (latest) using this:

"imageReference": {
"publisher": "microsoftvisualstudio",
"offer": "visualstudio2019latest",
"sku": "vs-2019-ent-latest-ws2019",
"version": "latest"
},

For some reason, VS2019 installed installed:

I have submitted a ticket thru Azure Support about this issue. While it will take some time for resolution, the workaround is to use this image:

"storageProfile": {
"imageReference": {
"publisher": "microsoftvisualstudio",
"offer": "visualstudio2019",
"sku": "vs-2019-ent-ws2019",
"version": "latest"
},

I'll submit a PR for this shortly.

I created a PR to resolve the issue temporary by using another image:
#71

So, there are two alternative to workaround this issue while the image is still being investigated.

Option 1: only if you have VS2019 Enterprise License

1. When clicking the "Deploy to Azure" Button in this step

2. Hit the "Edit template" in the Custom deployment.
   

3. Search for "imageReference" which supposed to be in about Line 113. Replace the publisher and offer to the followings:
   "imageReference": {
   "publisher": "microsoftvisualstudio",
   "offer": "visualstudio2019",
   "sku": "vs-2019-ent-ws2019",
   "version": "latest"
   }

Option 2: Install the VS2019 Community Edition in the VM

Update! the image issue has been fixed by the Azure backend team:

So, folks you can ignore my workaround / comment above

Following up to say the VM image for VS 2019 Community edition appears to have been fixed and is now installing VS 2019 Community correctly.
