Extension crash with Windows Powershell 5.1 : Exception encountered starting EditorServices #4483

AlexBillon07 · 2023-03-29T15:22:27Z

Prerequisites

I have written a descriptive issue title.
I have searched all open and closed issues to ensure it has not already been reported.
I have read the troubleshooting guide.
I am sure this issue is with the extension itself and does not reproduce in a standalone PowerShell instance.
I have verified that I am using the latest version of Visual Studio Code and the PowerShell extension.
If this is a security issue, I have read the security issue reporting guidance.

Summary

Since I have upgraded from Windows 2012R2 to 2016, the Powershell extension crashes each time I try to create a session with Windows Powershell 5.1

I have installed Powershell 7.3.3 and it works fine. Unfortunately, for some reasons I have to be able to use VSCode with Windows Powershell 5.1.

Thanks @AlexBillon07 it looks like you are using our February release, can you confirm this reproduces with our latest release?

andyleejordan · 2023-04-05T19:13:15Z

You could try updating your .NET Framework...I have a hunch that's the problem and I'm not exactly sure what our supported minimum in the GAC scenario (Windows PowerShell 5.1) is right now. The code is checking for at least .NET Framework 4.6.2, but maybe that doesn't work any more.

Link to downloads. If you really want to experiment, try 4.7, see if it repeats (maybe restart to be sure) and then repeat up until 4.8.1 🤷

Thanks @andschwa
