Hello,

VSCode recently updated to 1.36 and the Remote-SSH extension was recently updated as I was waiting for this action item to be addressed, Handle Proxy Issues on Remote

I am able to install extension on the remote session which the main extension is this one, vscode-cpptools. This extension was installed/updated to 0.23.1. Now, I keep getting the notification of "The C/C++ Extension has been updated to version 0.24.0-insiders3. Please reload the window for the changes to take effect"

After I press the "Reload" button and VSCode restarts the same message reappears after a few minutes. I had reloaded and restarted the remote session a number of times, but I still keep getting this notification. I am not sure this is problem with this extension or the remote extension.

For now, I changed the configuration option C_Cpp:Update Channdel to "default" instead of "Insiders", though I would like to use the Insiders channel.

    This appears to be the same issue as #3800 . There must be some unknown failure during the installation and we don't log enough info.

    0.24.0 is the latest now, but you'll probably hit the same issue again with 0.25.0-insiders.

    Sean McManus (@sean-mcmanus) After seeing your post, I started a remote editing session to see if v0.24.0 would be seen and then install it. I did install it, but as the dependencies were downloaded/installed the following was seen on the Output Window:

If you work in an offline environment or repeatedly see this error, try downloading a version of the extension with all the dependencies pre-included from https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-cpptools/releases, then use the "Install from VSIX" command in VS Code to install it.

    Edit: Okay, after shutting down VSC and re-launching the remote session it seems the installation completed okay:

    I am getting the exact same message:

    The C/C++ Extension has been updated to version 0.25.0-insiders. Please reload the window for the changes to take effect.

    For version 0.25.0-insiders though. I cannot get rid of it, no matter how often I click reload, and no matter how often I do a clean shutdown + restart of VSC.

    I just updated VSCode and then to cpptools 0.25.0-insiders. One note to make is, that I am using remote-wsl extension to develop.

    What logs could I provide you for a more detailed analysis?

    hi all
    got same issue - after update to 0.25-insiders it ask to reload window to apply changes. I'm using SSH Remote plugin to Linux host.

    to suppress this I updated config file:

    <AppData>\Roaming\Code\User\settings.json

    added string:

        "C_Cpp.updateChannel": "Default"

    We knew the update didn't work in the remote sessions yet (#3833), but if it's constantly nagging you about it, we should prioritize addressing this sooner.

    Opting out of the Insiders channel as mentioned by Sergey Oblomov (@hoopoepg) or ignoring the popup are the only workarounds right now.

    This appears to be caused by VS Code bug #3874 (Command workbench.extensions.installExtension doesn't work on Remote Host). Not sure yet if we should try to workaround that bug or wait till they fix it?

    Bob Brown (@bobbrow) Michelle Matias (@michelleangela) Colen Garoutte-Carson (@Colengms) VS Code fixed their issue but we're still failing to install remotely (I tried WSL) with error "Failed to find VS Code script".

    The Insider channel should work with vscode-remote with https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-cpptools/releases/tag/0.26.3 (after we have our next Insiders available).
