Remote Extension host terminated unexpectedly 3 times within the last 5 minutes.

[andreistoica12]

Type: Bug

I have a Windows machine and I try to open a project in my WSL2 environment with VS Code. However, I get the error: "Remote Extension host terminated unexpectedly 3 times within the last 5 minutes." with the latest release of VS Code server installed automatically on the WSL2 environment: 74f6148eb9ea00507ec113ec51c489d6ffb4b771 . It cannot see any git repository in the current folder, even though the root folder is a GitHub repository, thus I cannot see the changes made to my files. Please fix this as soon as possible.

VS Code version: Code 1.80.1 (74f6148eb9ea00507ec113ec51c489d6ffb4b771, 2023-07-12T17:22:07.651Z) OS version: Windows_NT x64 10.0.19045 Modes: Remote OS version: Linux x64 5.15.90.1-microsoft-standard-WSL2

Same here. I disabled all of my extensions and it's still failing.

Here is what is showing up in the debugger as the error:

ERR No registered selector for ID: ms-vscode.npm-command: Error: No registered selector for ID: ms-vscode.npm-command at vscode-file://vscode-app/Applications/Visual%20Studio%20Code.app/Contents/Resources/app/out/vs/workbench/workbench.desktop.main.js:1515:26878

I fixed this bug by remove the vscode-remote-containers and vscode-server in WSL2, that is rm -fr ~/.vscode-remote-containers rm -fr ~/.vscode-server rm -fr ~/.vscode. Then, reconnect to WSL2 in vscode and re-install the extensions you need.
