[Sov3rain]

Same behaviour here, same versions. Annoying but harmless.

[ghost]

I have the same problem when I upgrade to version 1.24.0 (C# Extension).

[heshuimu]

There is a way to get rid of that message:

1. Go into your user settings and set "useModernNet" to true. Restart VS Code.
2. Open a folder with a C# project to activate the C# plugin, watch it installs the new OmniSharp. Once done, set "useModernNet" back to false if you don't use it , close the Output panel, and restart VS Code.
3. The message should no longer appear and the Output panel should not show up automatically on the next launch once you close it.

The reason seems to be how the new logic handles install. Now because of the "useModernNet" stuff, when the setting is set to false, the plugin would skip installing the new OmniSharp. But because it is a part of the dependency list, and the person did not include logic to remove it from the dependency list and still pass in the entire dependency list, so at every launch C# plugin would try to install it again, but then new logic would skip it, again.

can i leave useModernNet to true @heshuimu ? would there be a problem if i dont set it back to false? thanks.

You can if you are not doing Unity development. See the README file regarding the change.

[ghost]

This output window behavior is incredibly obnoxious. I see this every single time I open VSCode. It's good that useModernNet can be used to work around this but this should really be fixed in omnisharp so this doesn't keep happening.

[ghost]

Setting useModernNet to true doesn't seem to have really helped at all. The "Output" window still pops up every time I open VSCode except now it's just empty.

VS Code remembers what panel is opened, so you have to close it yourself. It has never popped up for me ever since.

[pyrareae]

I can confirm this is also happening to me, and it's grating on my nerves. Especially since I primarily don't even use C#.

[hermitcat]

Same here! I'm shaking and crying rn

[duyongoc]

same here! Annoying :(

[abluescarab]

Chiming in with the same issue and the same annoyance. I frequently debug programs in the terminal so I'd like it to actually stay on the tab I choose.

[filipw]

This was resolved in #5041

[deanrih]

Thank you, it is harmless yet annoying.

Are there any words when this particular fix will be pushed out as a release and into VS Code?

[ovilaro]

It has been fixed since the latest version of the extension.

[filipw]

Released in 1.24.1
