## Steps to reproduce

Steps to Reproduce:
1. 
```zsh
dotnet new razor -o RazorTest
cd RazorTest
code .

2. Open any .cshtml file or .razor file

Expected behavior

Razor server should not crash

Actual behavior

Razor server crashed

Additional context

This is the exact same thing as what happened in #5321, but the proposed solution (setting CLR_OPENSSL_VERSION_OVERRIDE to 1.1 does not work, either from settings.json nor from cmd prompt, nor from wsl.

Tried things

• launching VSCode:

  • from start menu
  • from cmd prompt through code
  • from linux shell inside WSL through code

• totally remove + reinstalling:

  • the C# extension
  • VS Code:
  • from official website
  • from Windows Store
  • Ubuntu distro + WSL2

Nothing worked.

Many thanks

That's a work around, not necessarily a solution. Anyway, if that is not working for you, then it is likely your WSL distro does not include OpenSSL 1.1, so there is no old version to fall back to. Installing an old version is going to vary from distro to distro. You could try using a different WSL distro, like Debian, which still uses OpenSSL 1.1 the last time I checked, until the OpenSSL 3.0 issue is addressed.

I have same issue with Ubuntu 22.04.
