           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: x86_64
                OS: Windows
            Status: NEW

Unable to create a new D project when selecting a new project in VS2019. D
project cannot be selected at all and never shows for local windows account
with only user rights.

How to recreate.
1. Install VS2019 on the computer, will automatically ask for an account admin
(administrator) rights if you are running a user account.
2. Install VisualD, will automatically ask for admin rights
3. Start VS019, the "welcome screen" is shown. Select "create a new project"
and the new project window is shown. In the pull down menu with first entry
"All languages", try to choose D but D is never shown.

If you start VS2019 in an account with admin rights, then you can select D as
language when creating a new project.
