Regular NullReferenceException - what's the point of a tool that's BROKEN?

[logan-cy]

Literally all I want to do is write some code but this backward ridiculous mess has other ideas.

I restart VSCode, load up my project and instantly get this:

If there's some update I need to run, I'd appreciate it if this stupid extension could tell me about rather that screwing up my evening like this...

[nohwnd]

Is your project open source? Or do you have a repro? There were some problems around this recently, and some were fixed, but I see you are on the latest version of the extension.

[logan-cy]

My project is a project... I don't understand the question. I started it with dotnet new web... Is it supposed to make a difference if it's in a github repo or not? Usually my projects are, this one isn't public.
