Just watching @grymmjack 's great video and following along. Came across this issue with the file in the title. Note that qb64-0.9.0.vsix installs fine. Info :Completed installing QB64 extension from VSIX. For both files I downloaded them directly from github without cloning the full repo and used the three dot menu (and the pallette menu) to try and install. Same error with each method. Working on an old 8052-BASIC microcontroller program and these tools are invaluable, Thanks!

Hey @Dowster64 glad you enjoyed the video.

I'm not sure where @LordDurus is at with this project as I haven't spoken to him in a while, but regardless of this...

So the GitHub downloads aren't working, but the vsix sounds like it may be corrupted?

Hi @grymmjack, Same person different account here! Thanks for the reply. I did not want to clone the full repo, I only wanted to use the software, so I only downloaded the two vsix files. The first (latest version) download did not install in vscode. It gave the error in the title. The older version qb64-0.9.0.vsix installs fine. I did not try to download the full repo, which I guess is used to build those vsix/zip files?

I agree with @grymmjack sounds like the down load was corrupted. I just downloaded the vsix directly and installed in. image image

Please try down loading it again. If that doesn't please post the info about your VSCode.

@grymmjack and @LordDurus - thanks for your help. Yes the first download was truncated. I've just checked. Actually, for some reason I downloaded a link for qb64-0.9.1.vsix (not the file) and the actual file for qb64-0.9.0.vsix. I really don't get how I managed to muck that up. I didn't even check the size of the download until today. Definitely wasn't firing on all cylinders ...
