@Andergraw The debugger can no longer run on El Capitan. If you are only interested in editing, you can shut this warning off. Is it possible for you to upgrade?

[Andergraw]

No, it's not. But it used to work, right? Isn't there a way to install a previous version or something?
Thank you very much for your super fast answer, BTW!

[gregg-miskelly]

Will you be stuck on El Capitan for a long time? Or it just that this isn't something you have the time to change right now?

You can set the option to disable auto extension updates in VS Code, and then manually install v1.11.0 from the .vsix file using these instructions. Though the one problem with this is that you will also miss out on new language service features. But this is certainly a great option if you can't upgrade your OS yet, but it is a point-in-time problem.

[Andergraw]

Not sure how long, but I'm in the middle of a project right now and I have no intention to migrate.
So that's a great temporary solution. Just as a comment, it's kind of a dead end...I cannot install .NET v2 because I don't have Sierra and I cannot be updated with v1 because I don't have Sierra. And it's just the previous OS, we are not talking about an oldie.
In any case, thank you very much for your kind attention, Gregg. 30 minutes to solve my problem. That's awesome.
Cheers!
