VSCode can't load this extension.

It seems to be that this extension has trouble to get loaded correctly.

This is the error I see in the vscode Log (Extension Host)

@paule96 do you have the PowerShell or PowerShell Preview extension also installed? That is a requirement.

[paule96]

thank's for the hint. It happends if both extensions (PowerShell and PowerShell Preview) are installed and activated. After disabling the non preview version it works fine. Maybe we can implement a simpler error message for that case?

[TylerLeonhardt]

Ah. I could do that. Although the PowerShell extension should already send you a notification saying "hey you need to disable one!".

Do you see that notification? I'd rather not clutter notifications if I can.
