The usual multi caret short cut since VS2019 is

Ctrl + Alt + click : Add a secondary caret

as described in this answer.

After the installation of resharper it overrides this shortcut unfortunately with a navigation feature.

I looked throughout the shortcuts in environment-keyboard options in VS but apparently you cannot change or reinstate this shortcut according to this post.

How do I get my beloved multi-caret functionality back into my hands?

I found it! The Solution is to take away the key combination from Resharper.

Go to Resharper Options => Environment => Search & Navigation
and uncheck the Ctrl + Alt + Click checkbox:

and Visual Studio will allow you again to use the multi-caret functionality!

Here is the original link on how to disable the navigation functionality in resharper.
