So far, Visual Studio Professional 2022 LTSC has only been updated to 17.6.17. The version shown in your second image is the regular version, not LTSC (Long-Term Servicing Channel).

This is the document on LTSC version 17.6.17 which released July 9th, 2024. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/releases/2022/release-notes-v17.6#17.6.17

If you want to install both the LTSC version and the regular version on your computer, you need to change the installation location after clicking install, because the two versions cannot be placed in the same folder.

I tested it for you and took a screenshot. Take a look. When you click the install as your second picture shows, it must be like this. In this window, click the change button which I mark for u. enter image description here Then, you need to change the install folder as below. enter image description here At last, you will see the error disapears. enter image description here

If you do not need another installation, try the steps in this document which teach how to change the update setting to current version from LTSC. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/install/update-visual-studio?view=vs-2022#configure-source-location-of-updates-1
