🔄️ Add an `Reload window after disabling an extension` feature #227888

Open LucasDondo opened 2 weeks ago

I find myself disabling and enabling GitHub Copilot's extension on a daily basis. I use it for personal projects, but avoid it for college (I wanna learn stuff, you know?), but every time I disable it, it asks me to Reload Window, which becomes annoying after a couple of repetitions… In essence, adding a setting to do this automatically could save time and clicks to basically every student on earth in dealing with AI tools to learn tech.

You should be seeing Restart Extensions button when you disable an active extension, unless you are connect to remote. Can you please let us know if your VS Code client is connected to a remote server?

Oh, yeah, sorry for not being that clear. The button appears. But it would be nice if it was possible not even having to click the button for the windows to be restarted and the changes applied.
