VS Code wont let my kids open their programs

So my kids are using VS Code with the extention, but some of my kids have been getting issues with json on their end?

I’ve tried to uninstall vs code and totally removed it from the computer to reinstall it to no avail.

So far its only happened to 2 of my kids, one kid I had to totally wipe their laptop. the other still giving the errors.

Both are macs

You should never have to wipe the laptop, worst case should be removing the vex extension and reinstalling. However, that error is related to an issue with rosetta on Apple silicon macs. Not had any reports of that before with our extension. We will look into it next week.

Just did it, fixed the issue, thank you!

Shoot ok, that kinda makes sense now, those laptops are apple silicon, and I am pretty sure I didnt install Rosetta 2 yet…

Let me try that

Ok, good, sorry approved your posts in the wrong order.

If theres a way to make the extention prompt for Rosetta 2 on ur guys end (Dont think there is but just throwing it out there) it will prompt to install it over Apple servers, if not, the easiest way to get Rosetta 2 installed is to get info on safari, and click open using rosetta, it will prompt Apple Silicon computers to install it if it does not have it already.


Yeah I’ll look into this.
