  <p>But on click form Form1.cs I don't see the designer window. While when I created the same using <code>.Net Framework v4.7.1</code> </p>
  
  <p>I can see the designer window.</p>
  
  <p>As per the below link, with visual studio 2019, I dont need any extra configuration/vsix to do so.</p>

  <p>Don't see any such option to enable it.</p>
  
  <p><strong><em>Please check &amp; suggest how can I get the designer window &amp; use the toolbar to design the WinForms app when using .Net Core 3.1</em></strong></p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
