Steps to reproduce

Open Visual Studio Code Navigate to Extensions via the icon on left Under "RECOMMENDED" click on C# 1.23.4 C# for Visual Studio Code ... In the main window, click on the green Install button. Observe the message toast "Failed to install 'ms-dotnettools.csharp'. - followed by button "Download Manually" Click on "Download Manually" button, new browser window (tab) opens at: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/_apis/public/gallery/publishers/ms-dotnettools/vsextensions/csharp/1.23.4/vspackage HTML Returned:

{"$id":"1","innerException":null,"message":"Request was blocked due to exceeding usage of resource 'Count' in namespace 'AnonymousId'. For more information on why your request was blocked, see the topic \"Rate limits\" on the Microsoft Web site (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=823950).","typeName":"Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Framework.Server.RequestBlockedException, Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Framework.Server","typeKey":"RequestBlockedException","errorCode":0,"eventId":3000}

Expected behavior

At first, tried to update the extension: expected it to install. Removed and tried to install again: expected extension to install.

Actual behavior

Upon update: error message: failed to install - download manually button appears. Upon install: error message: failed to install - download manually button appears.

json returned from attempt to manually download references this web page in regard to "count": https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/integrate/concepts/rate-limits?view=azure-devops

See error in original post.

UPDATE: After about 10 minutes, a subsequent attempt to install succeeded.

Perhaps this is more appropriately addressed by Visual Studio Code itself as an enhancement request to do something more friendly when an extension install request is blocked due to repository resources overloaded or other errors happen.

Although, the appearance of the "Download Manually" button is perhaps somewhat friendly - but could be more friendly if a message was displayed with the resource error, and perhaps show the link to the error message's "more info" page.

I have submitted an enhancement request to Visual Studio Code requesting a means to see additional information upon certain types of extension install/update failures.

The enhancement request is posted here: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/109023
