Using Visual Studio Code I have installed a few extensions (like Guidelines showing vertical dotted lines between pairs of matching brackets). When I start VS Code I can see all my extensions working fine in the Editor window.
However, when I switch to another tab within VS Code, I no longer see the Guidelines or evidence of any extension working in the new editor tab. Worst of all, when I then switch back to my original tab, all the guidelines etc that were there a few seconds ago are gone!
To fix the issue I have to restart VS Code. This can't be right! Has anyone hit the same problem?
I have tried uninstalling VS Code where it warns me some components could not be uninstalled and I have to do them manually. It doesn't tell me which. When I then reinstall, the extensions are visible (without me reinstalling them) but again I hit the same issues as above.
Please help?
Seems like having too many extensions installed, or perhaps one that is misbehaving behind the scenes, causes this problem. Reduce the number of installed extensions. Use Help->Developer Tools -> Console to see if there are any messages relating to the Extensions server
