Serial port view list empty

[viteo]

VS Code v. 1.67.2
In Device Manager I have two serial ports available (COM1 and COM8 for example).
In VSCode Serial Port View: List seems to be empty, refresh button doesnt change the list.

Double click on empty line opens Serial Port [COM1] though:

_{The issue might be connected with window locale, but I don't know where to dig.}

On my side, I've finally successfully rebuilt serial port module on my ubuntu 20.04 with these commands:

sudo apt install libudev-dev
cd .vscode-oss/extensions/hancel.serialport-helper-0.0.15/node_modules/@serialport/bindings
node-gyp rebuild --target=18.3.5 --arch=x64 --dist-url=https://electronjs.org/headers
cd ../../usb-detection/
node-gyp rebuild --target=18.3.5 --arch=x64 --dist-url=https://electronjs.org/headers

And the list of serial ports is populated :-)
