BUG REPORT

Environment:

• VSCode Version:
  1.18.1
  929bacba01ef658b873545e26034d1a8067445e9
  2017-11-16T18:19:05.981Z

What happened:
The extension fails to load or function at all.

I followed the steps to debug the extension and found this in the Developers Console:
(https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/extensions/debugging-extensions)

What did you expect to happen:

Have vim key bindings in VSCode.

How to reproduce it:

Just open VSCode with the extension enabled, I have the following vscode usersettings:

...
"vim.enableNeovim": true,
"vim.neovimPath": "/usr/local/bin/nvim",
 "vim.disableAnnoyingNeovimMessage": true,
...

Can you try deleting /Users/Tristian/.vscode/extensions/vscodevim.vim-0.10.5 folder and then reinstalling the extension? I see lodash in the package.json https://github.com/VSCodeVim/Vim/blob/master/package.json#L573 so not sure why it would be complaining.

Also, "vim.disableAnnoyingNeovimMessage": true, isn't necessary anymore as I deleted the neovim message :)

Thanks @jpoon that did the trick:

1. Quit VSCode.
2. In a terminal:
   terminal rm -rf $HOME/.vscode/extensions/vscodevim.vim-0.10.5
3. Reopen VSCode.
4. Reinstall extension and reload editor.
