[microsoft/vscode] working... but not working

GH-microsoft/vscode#300026 • Mar 07, 2026

### ROOT CAUSE The issue is likely due to a configuration error, outdated extension, or conflicting extensions in VS Code. The TypeScript extension may not be properly installed or there could be misconfigurations in the settings. ### CODE FIX 1. **Update the TypeScript Extension:** - Open VS Code. - Go to `Extension` (Ctrl+Shift+X or Cmd+Shift+X). - Search for "TypeScript" and ensure it's updated to the latest version. 2. **Check VS Code Settings:** - Open the Command Palette (`Ctrl+Shift+P` or `Cmd+Shift+P`). - Type "Configure TypeScript" and select the appropriate setting file. - Review the settings to ensure there are no conflicting configurations. 3. **Disable Other Extensions:** - Temporarily disable other extensions to check if any are conflicting. - Use `vscode extensions disableExtension` command for each extension. 4. **Clean Restart of VS Code:** - Close all instances of VS Code. - Start VS Code again to ensure a clean environment. 5. **Clear VS Code Cache:** - Navigate to `File > Settings > General > Reset VS Code`. - Confirm to reset settings and clear cache. 6. **Check for Environment Variables:** - Ensure no environment variables interfere with TypeScript processes. - Review and adjust environment variables as needed. 7. **Delete .vscode Folder:** - In your project directory, delete the `.vscode` folder. - Restart VS Code to regenerate the folder with default settings. 8. **Update VS Code:** - Check for updates to VS Code under `Help > Check for Updates`. - Install any available updates to ensure the latest bug fixes. If the issue persists after these steps, consider reporting the problem on the [TypeScript VS Code GitHub repository](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-typescript/issues) with detailed information about the problem, including any error messages or logs.
