I am using v 1.23.1 on windows 7
When I open visual code there are no other windows for the app that will show. If I Open a folder it will not show the code. If I click on File > Preferences > Settings it will not open the window (I assume a modal). I have uninstalled it several time, and removed everything out of %appdata% code. It has worked in the past, but it might have been a previous version.
I can't get to the remove extensions window to remove extensions

Can I run VS Code on Windows 7?
Microsoft ended support for Windows 7 in January, 2020 and no longer provides security updates. VS Code desktop versions starting with 1.71 (August 2022) will no longer run on Windows 7 and you will need to upgrade to a newer Windows version to use later versions of VS Code.
VS Code will no longer provide product updates or security fixes on Windows 7 and VS Code version 1.70.3 is the last available release for Windows 7 users. You can learn more about upgrading your Windows version at support.microsoft.com.
I was getting the same issue so I downloaded the 1.70.2 and it started working.
https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_70
https://update.code.visualstudio.com/1.70.2/win32-x64-user/stable
Follow these for permanent solution:
right click the visual studio icon on desktop
go to properties
go to the path
after the end of inverted commas"..
give a blankspace and type: --disable-gpu
press apply and ok
restart now.

I have been struggling with this vs code issue (extension host terminated unexpectedly).
I've tried uninstalling/ reinstalling vs code, I've uninstalled and disabled all my extensions and still get the error, I've downloaded an older version which worked temporarily, I'm out of ideas.
I don't understand how I can have no extensions but the still get the error?
does anybody know the answer to this?
it seems I'm having the same issue as your from around the same time. I would suggest to add more infos, in my case for example
> MacOS X : 10.11.6 El Capitan
> VS Code Version: 1.57.1
> Commit: 507ce72a4466fbb27b715c3722558bb15afa9f48
> Date: 2021-06-17T13:28:32.912Z
> Electron: 12.0.7
> Chrome: 89.0.4389.128
> Node.js: 14.16.0
> V8: 8.9.255.25-electron.0
> OS: Darwin x64 15.6.0
After a long period of not using VS Code I found this alert always popping up
-Extension host terminated unexpectedly
-Open Developer Tools -Restart Extension Host
And restarting just repeated this alert.
If I choose from the context menu (aka right click) Run a line/selection or Run Current File, either on terminal or in interactive window with Jupyter, it has no reaction (while a couple of days ago it worked perfectly, when I used it in offline cause there was no wifi)
In hope it could help you, here are what I tried:
to deactivate and reactivate the extension (cmd+shift+p > Reload With
Extensions disabled)
to install a previous extension of Python ms-python.python (or whatever suit your case)
to run the command Bisect (cmd+shift+p > Help: Start Extension
Bisect)
So far I found no solution for me.
Soon I will try to follow what sumitparakh commented in this github issue , meaning to save the former extensionHostProcess.js file (renaming it) and adding in its stead the file he provided
On Windows the location should be
C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code\resources\app\out\vs\workbench\services\extensions\node\extensionHostProcess.js
While MacOS path should be:
'/Applications/Visual Studio Code.app/Contents/Resources/app/out/vs/workbench/services/extensions/node/extensionHostProcess.js'
UPDATE 1: after adding the file and reloading I get even this message
-Your Code installation appears to be corrupt. Please Reinstall
-More information
UPDATE 2: I tried to follow this fix from a github issue . Here is the quote:
ehamwey commented on Jan 4
The following steps worked for me, after upgrading from an x86 build
of vscode-insiders to Darwin arm64 (version 1.53.0-insider) I got the
behavior described above.
Remove the folder: /Users/[your-home-folder]/.vscode/ # **NOTE:** I renamed it as a backup
This will remove all extensions and any vscode configurations from your system!
Reinstall vscode and any extensions
BUT, even after I reinstalled the same version 1.57.1 of Code the extension host error is there, without any extension yet installed...
So maybe, I should try to revert to a previous update and maybe even reporting this issue
I'm open to suggestion aswell
I solved it running in the notebook kernel:
pip install six
I can't open a new external terminal with CTRL + SHIFT+C. Did a new update remove this function? I was able to use this shortcut before, but now I cannot.
This appears to be a bug with the current version of Visual Studio Code, as multiple users are reporting it isn't working across different operating systems:
GitHub Issue #1
GitHub Issue #2
I updated to 1.57 the other day, and it is not working for me now either. Previously it was on a slightly older version that I updated from.
Update:
The latest Visual Studio Code Insiders release (1.58) has addressed this as noted in this GitHub issue. If you really want this functionality back, you can download the Insiders edition, otherwise you'll need to wait until the next update for the main application.
Final Update:
The May Recovery update resolved this issue. Download the update, and you should be able to once again open external terminals through the command.
It was the issue vscode 1.57 which lasted for about an week.
If you upgrade to the latest version of vscode, it will work now.
Good Job VSCODE !
whenever i try to open my vs code editor, nothing happens it doesn't launch and even there are no errors..!! And i am confused what's wrong here in my vs code. Please anyone help me fix it..!!
Below are the verbose command i typed in the terminal..
C:\Users\Avinash>code . --verbose
[main 2020-05-10T05:17:56.317Z] Error: UNKNOWN: unknown error, mkdir
[main 2020-05-10T05:17:56.318Z] Lifecycle#kill()
[main 2020-05-10T05:17:56.320Z] [File Watcher (node.js)] Error: UNKNOWN: unknown error, stat 'c:\Users\Avinash Maurya\AppData\Roaming\Code\User'
no need of Unistalling, just go to your vscode-setup and reinstall it. (by this procedure all of your's settings, files , extensions etc.. will be restored as it is.)
I also came across the same issue.
Uninstalling and Reinstalling it again worked out and all my extensions were there already(that was strange).
You may want to try "Run as Administrator".
try code --no-sandbox in kali linux
try this it worked for me!
got to the Microsoft store
install vs code form there
then an error massage will appear
now try to open your vs code and wait ...
You can try by searching vs code and if it opens you can right click it, create the shortcut and use it instead of the old shortcut. This worked for me so please try it.
Here is the best solution:
No need to uninstall or do anything.
I was also facing the same issue. Go to task manager. You'll see that visual studio code is running. Select it and press end task. Now you can open vscode normally. It's fixed!
Somehow I had two vs code installs on my computer (one user and one system) and they appeared to be conflicting. I uninstalled user and everything worked. I suggest uninstalling all versions and reinstalling using the system installer executable.
Just reinstall the vs code from previously downloaded setup, everything including extensions get restored. enjoy coding
I Have Got the Same Problem as you just open the folder where you have downloaded VS Code. Like in My case its in Drive C and open from icon in that folder.
you can fix this issue by selecting run this program as administrator under compatibility tab.
If you are on win10, kill all vscode processes, delete folder 'C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\Code', and launch vscode again.
if anyone is still wondering abt it, Microsoft ended support for Windows 7 in January, 2020 and no longer provides security updates. VS Code desktop versions starting with 1.71 (August 2022) will no longer run on Windows 7 and you will need to upgrade to a newer Windows version to use later versions of VS Code.
Thus, if you want to keep windows 7 version, you have to download an older version than 1.71 of VS Code , for example, 1.69 version (https://www.filepuma.com/download/visual_studio_code_64bit_1.69.1-32681/) and uncheck all the auto updates from the settings.
whenever you want to add any extension, you just have to choose the older version of it.
If you cannot open the vs code editor on windows 7, then you need to download the latest version 1.70.2 from July 2022, which is supported by windows 7. Here is a link as an example: https://update.code.visualstudio.com/1.70.2/win32-x64/stable
Recently I updated my Windows 10 Pro with May Update (version 1903, build 18362.116). Then for my existing distros: OpenSuse Leap 15 and Ubuntu (installed from MS Store), I wanted to open a linux directory by using Explorer and I'm getting this message:
[susedis#mypc ~]$ explorer.exe .
If 'explorer.exe' is not a typo you can use command-not-found to lookup the package that contains it, like this:
cnf explorer.exe
This problem happens also with VSC (code) and VSC-Insiders (code-insiders).
I've read this article and ...
OPTION 1: my current problem
OPTION 2: icon LINUX does not exist in tree view
OPTION 3: it works
Supposedly options 1 and 2 should exist and work, even more with the latest update. What's wrong? Thanks in advance.
PS1: I've found these articles Run Visual Studio Code for Linux from WSL and Using Visual Studio Code with Windows Subsystem for Linux, they talk about installing xserver and more stuff on side linux. But many other articles and videos don't talk about it, it's like it was a built-in feature of Windows. This is so dark.
I just found what is the root of my problem: the distro.
explorer, code, code-insiders commands ONLY work through UBUNTU and I was using OpenSuse.
This warning is lacking in every article on Web I read, including on VSC site (example: Developing in WSL). This is a disadvantage for other distros. Very bad.
PS1: The solution can be found here.
As mentioned here I've tried to build the QGIS on Windows 7.
There are two methods one using Visual Studio Express Edition installer and the second one using MinGW.
I've found both of them broken and don't know what to do next
In building using Visual Studio
The link to visual studio actually installs the version 2010 but documentation assumes it version 2009. So "set VS90COMNTOOLS=%PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\Tools\" path is not found.
Also I'm confused about the context of this line:
If the path to bison and flex contains blanks, you need to use the
short name for the directory (i.e. C:\Program Files should be
rewritten to C:\Progra~n, where n is the number as shown in `dir /x
C:``).
In Building using MinGW 4.2.1. MSYS link is not found(404) but when I try to build step by step I find XDR 4.0 not found(404) in this page
So what's the way to build it?
All I want is to change the title and startup photo of QGIS Desktop software.
Using another application I'm now able to change the title of running QGIS but don't know where to change the photo which shows "Loading plugins...".
The build instructions for Windows 7 are a tad long in the tooth, but they work for the most part. I did not try MinGW.
I immediately changed the VS90COMNTOOLS path to point to the Visual Studio 2010 directory and it seemed to work for me:
set VS90COMNTOOLS=%PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\Tools\
Regarding bison and flex configuration, I used the latest version of CMake (3.3.1 as of now) and didn't encounter any warnings/errors pertaining to bison or flex. Are you encountering any right now? If not, you should be able to proceed.
