I uninstalled and reinstalled vscode. Extensions like prettier,etc has stopped working. This started happening after it autoupdated itself. how to fix this?

Getting following error on start or even after restarting. Extension host terminated unexpectedly. 

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'c:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Microsoft VS Code\resources\app\out\vs\workbench\services\extensions\node\extensionHostProcess.js'

I check the path and there is extensionHostProcess.nls file but there is not .js file. Problem with version- 1.44

actually my quickheal was deleting the extensionHostProcess.js file. I don't know why it suddenly started doing so. Anyway , just exclude that file in your anti virus and check if it is working fine or not?

Go to the setting symbol in the visual code . Mostly this issue occurs when the Vs code updates are not done and extensions fails to reboot . In the setting button /logo there is a option for to #"check updates " check if you miss any one of the updates . If not then , Go to the same setting there you can see "Restart updates " . Click that once done close Vs code and open it again it will work . It worked for me .

Or get the extensionhostprocess.js file and replace it on the same directory then exclude the same file in the anti virus .
