@DustinCampbell new issue created from #938 .

That's for creating a new issue! This bit is likely where the problem lies:

Platform: win32, unknown

It looks to me like it's unable to detect the Windows architecture (i.e. 32-bit or 64-bit) that you're running on. So, it fails to pick an OmniSharp server to download.

Could you do the following for me? At a command line, run wmic os get osarchitecture and let me know the output.

[enricforn]

Command run, and the output is:

PS C:\Users\Enric> C:\Windows\System32\wbem\wmic.exe os get osarchitecture
OSArchitecture
64 bits

Let me know if you need additional info about my environment.

[DustinCampbell]

Hmmm... that's weird. This line should be catching it: https://github.com/OmniSharp/omnisharp-vscode/blob/master/src/platform.ts#L178.

I note that you typed the full path. Is wmic not on your path?

[enricforn]

Yes I must type full path because wmic seems was not on path. I review system environment variable "path", and I found C:\Windows\System32...

[enricforn]

Just added wmi to path and it work fine.

Thanks for your help :) @DustinCampbell
