Welcome to SO, please take a look at this: https://stackoverflow.com/help/dont-ask — CSharpRocks, May 22 '17 at 22:38
The official RTM build of Visual Studio for Mac has shipped, so any Preview build should go away. — Lex Li, May 23 '17 at 02:25
@CSharpRocks - What exactly would you like me to have asked? Since Microsoft bought Xamarin, I can't go to their support any longer, and am forced to post issues on SO, per their own instructions. Issues with Xamarin are to be posted to the SO community. — metro6audio, May 23 '17 at 21:11

Redownloaded the installer and all seems to be well. Might have caught them in the midst of a migration?
