I’m very new to coding and have tried to search previous questions but to no avail.

My ‘live preview’ extension was working fine in Visual Studio Code - I just clicked a little icon on the right and saw a HTML preview of my site.

Suddenly it has disappeared and I can’t work out how to get it back.

I have tried: Restarting windows and VSC Re-opening the folder I’m working on Disabling all and enabling all extensions and restarting Disabling / removing the extension and re-downloading Trying a different preview extension

And nothing is working! Please help?

Also please explain like I’m an idiot if it’s anything technical.

  • right click on the status bar. check the permission to show the icon. – ino Jun 22 '22 at 16:21
  • The options I have when I RC the status bar are: Worksoace trust / problems / editor selection / editor indentation / editor encoding / editor end of line / editor language / feedback / notifications - I can’t see anything else and they are all checked currently? – gcl_codeguy Jun 22 '22 at 16:26
  • This is now solved. I uninstalled VSC. Then created a new file which it recognised as html (which it wasn’t before despite same code) and then the icon came back! – gcl_codeguy Jun 22 '22 at 16:59
