Type: Bug

extension host terminated unexpectedly 3 times within the last 5 minutes. I have been placing this problem since last update of vscode. I have not installed any extension after that. I tried to disable git related extension but no success. Please look into it.

Given that you have 126 extensions installed this is very likely caused by one of them. To figure out which one is cause the crash, you can use extension bisect (link coming in bot comment).

[vscodenpa]

This issue is caused by an extension, please file it with the repository (or contact) the extension has linked in its overview in VS Code or the marketplace for VS Code. See also our issue reporting guidelines. If you don't know which extension is causing the problem, you can run Help: Start extension bisect from the command palette (F1) to help identify the problem extension.

Happy Coding!

This error "Extension host terminated unexpectedly 3 times within the last 5 minutes" is more likely caused by an extension, in my case, it was "Live Sass Compiler" extension, and that makes sense since it was migrated and outdated.

Thanks Ali for the solution.
