Visual Studio F12 not working

I have a local install of Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2022 (64-bit) - Current Version 17.11.4 along with Synergy/DE (x64) 12.1.1.3292 and Synergy DBL SDI (24.9.2004.0)

When I place my cursor on a variable and press F12 to go to it's definition, nothing happens. Doesn't matter if it is a local variable, one from a .include file or from the repository.
I can't see anything wrong with the environment setup and compiles are working just fine.

This has happened a few times so glad it's been posted it here for visibility. And thank you to Andrew for bringing this up. This can occur is the workload ".NET Desktop Development" is missing in your Visual Studio install. Your workloads can be seen through the Visual Studio Installer program, click modify on your install. It will bring you to workloads. Since workloads can be added or removed after SDI installation the workload can be absent and feature like go to definition we cease to work. SDI will not be able to inform you that the workload is missing. Be sure to look over the SDI requirements here: https://www.synergex.com/synergy-dbl-integration/

If you have the latest version of Visual Studio and Synergy Integration for Visual Studio and all of the requirements listed in the link above, and you still  have issues with go to definition please inform Developer Support at support@synergex.com

Installing the missing component fixed the issue.
Thanks for the prompt response and the fix.
