(Insiders): Error: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat '/Users/foo/project/.vscode'

While testing the fix for #71588 I see this in the console when opening a project:

I saw this again yesterday, but strangely it has the same path as above - which is an old dev extension I used when testing another issue. That extension was only ever installed into the dev extension host by launching it with F5 from the standard VS Code instance - so it seems like something my have hung around from an old install of a dev extension (it does not show in the extensions list).

Is it shown only when you are debugging an extension using VS Code or always?

[DanTup]

I think it was only when I was debugging my extension. However, I can't repro now - while trying to fix something the other day, I cleared a lot of the localStorage(?) keys in my Insiders install, and some of them had the path above in. I don't know if that's related - maybe there was a key that referenced that vscode folder at some point and I deleted it? I should've tried to get a call stack from the error above :(

If you think extension is running, then my guess would be that our running extension manifests cache might have this entry. But it is just a guess and cannot confirm it. Please try to get more info if you see this again. One thing you can check is to Open Running Extensions editor and see if it has this extension or not.

[DanTup]

If I see it again, I'll do some more digging. It's not often I create new extensions and run them, usually just for repros of issues here, so it might be a while. Feel free to close this in the meantime if you don't think there's anything you can progress.

Same problem. Brand new VS Code, added all extensions required to work with IoT DevKits and:

ENOENT: no such file or directory, mkdir 'C:\Users\User\Documents\iotwbprojects\examples'

Source: Azure IoT Device Workbench (Extension).

Was this fixed? The folder/ files are not open any where else.
