Visual Studio 2019: Only TODO tokens appear in Task List

I use Visual Studio 2019 with C#.

in my Task List I only see "TODO" tokens, but all my own tokens have disappeared from Task List (the Tokens still exist in the source code) I don't know when or why this happened, I did nothing unusal, just several Updates of Visual Studio (and Windows 10)

I could not find any useful hints using Google so maybe somebody here does know how to rebuild\refresh the Task List? And there must be a place where the Task List Information is stored (cache?) - maybe it would help to delete it..?

how to rebuild\refresh the Task List

The token list can be found at Options → Environment → Task List. If tokens aren't there, you probably lost them forever.

Tokens

Also, you can check Import and Export settings enter image description here

If you'll open that file, you could find category named TaskList — that's where your tokens are stored. If the ones you find missing aren't there, then you completely lost your old tokens.

I've found out that this is a bug in VS and will be fixed in a future release of VS (probably in version 16.7)
