VS Intellasense Not Working With Pros

Programming Support VEXcode V5 Tech Support

Hello everyone,
I’m using Visual Studio Code with the Pros EZ Template.
For some reason, Intellasense does not work in the project.
It works in other projects when I use VS code (Non - Vex related).
Does anyone have any ideas on what to check to enable it/ fix the issue?

Thanks,

  1. Ensure you have the C/C++ extension installed
  2. Use Ctrl + Shift + p to view the command palette and locate C/C++: Edit configurations (UI) or C/C++: Edit configurations (JSON)
  3. Confirm your compiler path is correct
    If you do not have a C/C++ compiler, I highly suggest using MinGW and following VSCodes installation instructions: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/cpp/config-mingw
    If this fails, then consider checking your settings.json file. Feel free to elaborate more on the issue if this is unhelpful.

Make sure you have a linter extension installed and only 1 active. (clangd or microsoft c/c++).

PROS includes the necessary toolchain (compiler etc.) no need to install mingw

Thank you! Checking the C/C++: Edit configurations (JSON) led me to this error
“C_Cpp.intelliSenseEngineis set todisabled” - Which means I had something disabled.
After setting that to defualt everything works again.
Thank you all for the suggestions!
