"nRF Connect for VS Code" extension stalled empty in side bar

[JRSN]

Hi All,

VS Code version 1.105.0

Mac Silicon, latest OS version installed : Tahoe 26.0.1

Since yesterday, my "nRF connect for VS Code" extension is stalled : the content on the extension is not shown (side bar empty) and a blue line is sliding horizontally forever at the top of the "nRF connect for VS code" side bar.

It might be an issue with the latest VS Code version : upgrading to the 1.105.0 is the only modification made to my development environment.

Erasing the .vscode directory does not solve the issue, reinstalling both VS Code and the nRF extensions neither.

So, I am clueless

Any idea on your side ? I am the only one to encounter this blocking issue ?

Thanks for your help

Hi,

Do you still face the issue?

Could you take a look at this ticket and see if it helps?

Thanks for this idea.

These commands are uninstalling the tools and cleaning all. Right ?

What should I do after ? reinstall as if it had never been installed ?

[Priyanka]

Yes, then you could try a clean installation from scratch.

Hi Priyanka,

Thanks for the hint.

I tried the very first block of rm commands:

rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/Code
rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/com.microsoft.VSCode
rm -rf ~/Library/Saved\Application\ State/com.microsoft.VSCode.savedState
rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.microsoft.VSCode.plist
rm -rf ~/.vscode

And it then reinstalled the nRF extension fo VS Code extension and it now appears in the side bar.

I think this solved the issue.

In case I encounter quite the same issue, I will try to execute all the commands of the ticket you suggested.

Your help is then much appreciated and valued.

Thanks
