    Unity newest version, 2020.1.9f1

    Visual studio community 2019 16.7.6 version

    When double click unity's script, does not open visual studio, nothing happen.

    Preference-external tools-external script editor is set to Visual studio 2019 (Community),

    no matter what 3 options from Visual studio.... neither works.

    now what?

    Just re opened unity, no more above error, but still can't open script from unity. (except via [open by file extension] option), but this option is not preferable.

    Maybe you haven't assigned it in the external tools? Edit=>Prefrences=>External Tools and change it there

    Yeah, I was just about to report this as a bug myself. I also have same issue in version in Unity 2019.4.13f1

    A workaround to open the script is to click on the 3 dots to the right of the script component and then select "edit script".
