I have a problem, where I don't see the toolbar for merge conflicts in Visual Studio Code even after enabling the editor.codeLens.
Any idea what else it can be?
I tried to restart VS Code, disabling/enabling editor.codeLens.
I even installed/uninstalled Gitlens - Git supercharged.
Thank you in advance.
Reference for my inputs are from:
Accept Incoming Change not appearing in VS Code
In case someone still can't solve this issue. You can turn off the Git: Merge Editor from Setting menu.
VSCode merge conflict options not displaying
I uninstalled the VSCode and reinstalled it but doens't work.
Then I completely uninstalled the VSCode along with its data, caches, temporary files And Reinstalled it and Worked like a charm.
Before that I tried enabling CodeLens and Adding VSCode as default merge tool, difftool and whatever is available on the internet, nothing worked.
Basically what I deduce is, there is some extension that have malfunctioned your VSCode git merge tool or its settings. You can try uninstalling all extensions first before completly uninstall the VSCode
Uninstall Completely
For Mac run following command in terminalsee this answer
rm -fr ~/Library/Preferences/com.microsoft.VSCode.helper.plist

rm -fr ~/Library/Application\ Support/Code/
rm -fr ~/Library/Saved\ Application\ State/com.microsoft.VSCode.savedState/
rm -fr ~/.vscode/
For Windows see this answer
Go to Path: C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code

This will uninstall VS Code from Your Windows OS and
After uninstallation delete code folder also.
Open Run (Win + R) and Enter %appdata% Press Enter

Delete this folder as well %USERPROFILE%\.vscode according to this answer
A few days ago I installed Kali Linux. I'm trying to use Code-OSS instead of VSCode, since newest version of Kali doesn't have the libraries needed to install the normal one.
If I try to open a folder in Code-OSS from terminal using code-oss . or code ., it just opens Code on a new 'untitled-1' document, or opens the folder I was before closing Code-OSS. It doesn't open the folder I was in the terminal.
In these cases I need to open the folder I want through File > Open folder > search for folder and then open it.
The same just occurred with git commit or git commit --amend; it opens a new document, not the one I want to open.
I spent sometime searching for a solution on documentation, stackoverflow, google but could not find anything.
I cannot find any way to resolve this problem on Code-oss. Apparently it happened just with me.
Surprisingly for me, I was able to install VSCode following this tutorial, and it apparently managed to ignore the lack of libraries of Kali Linux that I mentioned above.
I hope this solution prevent any person in the future to get stuck on this.
I had the same issue when I first installed Kali-linux on my VM. Pretty anoying.
Just intall vscode by running :
sudo apt update
sudo apt install code
It will unistall code-oss and install VsCode, and it works now.
When I tried to open vscode in WSL bash on Ubuntu 20.04 using command code ., it failed and the following message was logged:
/mnt/c/Users/john/.vscode/extensions/ms-vscode-remote.remote-wsl-0.50.1/scripts/wslCode.sh: 57: /home/john/.vscode-server/bin/d2e414d9e4239a252d1ab117bd7067f125afd80a/bin/code: not found
I would like to ask how to fix this problem? Thx a lot!
I found the solution. Even though I think that you've already know it.
You need to delete the folder /home/john/.vscode-server/ with sudo rm -rf /home/john/.vscode-server.
Then, you just run code . or try to open any project that you want it.
Then a script will load and will install a new .vscode-server in your machine with the right files.

For context:
-n, --new Open a new instance of the application even if one is already running. Thanks #TMG. More options can be found in the docs: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/command-line
I have VS Code v1.38.1 installed on Ubuntu 18.4
encounter a similar crashing issue (failed to launch Code) today.
It is possibly due to Ubuntu stopped while Code was open.
To resolve this issue, I did the following
$ cd ~/.config/Code
$ rm -rf Cache/
$ rm -rf CacheData/
$ rm -rf CacheExtensions/
Visual Studio Code states probable reason for that:
I'm running Eclipse SDK 3.4.0 on Mac OS X 10.5.6.
Every time I try to install something new through "software updates", the message "The software items you selected may not be valid with your current installation" shows up.
So I'm going to uninstall it and re-install Eclipse.
Should I just erase the Eclipse folder or is there a way to uninstall it?
Actually Eclipse does create some other files not within it's directory which survive deleting it's directory.
In Snow Leopard, look in your user's account under:
~/Library/Caches/org.eclipse.eclipse
~/Library/Preferences/org.eclipse.eclipse.plist
Not sure if you need to turn on viewing of hidden files to see those.
Under Lion I deleted the following files and folders:
eclipse in /Applications (obviously)
.eclipse in ~
.eclipse_keyring in ~
org.eclipse.eclipse in ~/Library/Caches
org.eclipse.eclipse.savedState in ~/Library/Saved Application State/
Some of them are hidden so you should delete them via Terminal.
Here is my list of things to delete for OSX Mountain Lion
~/.eclipse (folder);
~/Library/Saved Application/org.eclipse.eclipse.savedState;
~/Library/Preferences/org.eclipse.eclipse.plist;
~/Library/Caches/org.eclipse.eclipse;
... and of course the eclipse install folder
No need to uninstall anything, you can just delete the eclipse/ folder, but you should also use a fresh workspace or delete the workspace/.metadata folder.
In my case with High Sierra, apart from the eclipse folder, I deleted also:
~/.eclipse
~/.p2/pool/plugins/org.eclipse.*
~/.p2/pool/.eclipseextension/
~/.p2/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.repository/
~/.p2/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.engine/
~/.p2/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.core/
From terminal, find all eclipse directories with
sudo find / -iname "Eclipse"
Delete those directories with rm command.
Deleting the eclipse folder is equivalent to uninstalling it. In fact, if you don't want to tamper with the existing installation you can create another instance of eclipse and run from the new location.
Eclipse has no impact on Mac OS beyond it directory, so there is no problem uninstalling.
I think that What you are facing is the result of Eclipse switching the plugin distribution system recently. There are now two redundant and not very compatible means of installing plugins. It's a complete mess. You may be better off (if possible) installing a more recent version of Eclipse (maybe even the 3.5 milestones) as they seem to be more stable in that regard.
I know this thread is too old but recently I was wondering how to delete eclipse app on my MacBook Pro running macOS High Sierra.
Bellow are the steps which I followed to delete it from my system. Added screenshots for more clear understanding.
Open the eclipse app and it will show an app icon in dock. If it is not already present in dock then please try to run the app from Spotlight Search by pressing ⌘ + space.
Now right click on that eclipse logo from dock and click Show in Finder under Options.
It will open the location of the eclipse app in an external finder window.
You can just delete the entire root directory (i.e. - eclipse) by pressing ⌘ + delete.
Don't forget to delete the app from Trash as well if you are removing it from system completely.
Thanks. Hope this helped.
BTW. AppZapper is a great OSX tool for uninstalling apps and their preferences.
It sometimes comes a part of MacHeist
For BigSur, I did follow considering all the above.
Remove from Applications folder
rm -rf ~/.eclipse/
rm -rf ~/.p2/pool/
rm -rf ~/.p2/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.repository/
rm -rf ~/.p2/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.engine/
rm -rf ~/.p2/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.core/
rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/org.eclipse.platform.ide/
rm ~/Library/Preferences/org.eclipse.oomph.setup.installer.product.with-jre.restricted.plist
rm ~/Library/Preferences/org.eclipse.platform.ide.plist
rm -rf ~/Library/Saved\ Application\ State/org.eclipse.oomph.setup.installer.product.with-jre.restricted.savedState/
rm -rf ~/Library/Saved\ Application\ State/org.eclipse.platform.ide.savedState/
I just had a similar problem, with the GWT-PlugIn not showing up in the interface.
Deleting the eclipse folder did not solve it, GWT was still there!
Deleting workspace didn't work!
But deleting the .eclipse folder in the home directory did!
I'm working under WIndows 7 here, but it should be the same with OSX. But you may have to make the folder visible first. Under linux based system, folders starting with a dot are invisible by default.
This folder was probably the reason I had problems in the first place. If I remember right, I switched from basic Eclipse to EE, but didn't delete this folder.
In my opinion, an uninstall skript would do Eclipse quite good.
Just delete the eclipse folder wherever it is
