Interesting... We have the minimum requirement set to 1.25 so this shouldn't be happening. Let me open an issue on vscode and see what they think.

[TylerLeonhardt]

Opened issue on the vscode-languageclient ^

Thanks. Your comment helped me to find workaround.

You have dependency on "vscode-languageclient": "~5.0.0" and on my machine it has requirement of "vscode": "^1.26" in C:\Users\user\.vscode\extensions\ms-vscode.powershell-1.8.4\node_modules\vscode-languageclient\package.json. May be it changed after update of vs code.

I've changed it manually to "^1.25", looks like it's working now.

[TylerLeonhardt]

Glad you're unblocked! I'll work with the folks over there and investigate this.

[TylerLeonhardt]

Now that 1.27 is released, I think we're going to close this issue. We only support versions latest and latest - 1.

If you have any concerns please let me know.
