ViewsIntellisense not autocompleting variables in HTML
Intellisense for html in my VSCode has stopped working. I'm able to get the autocomplete for html tags, but I'm not getting suggestions for .ts variables. I've always used this feature and for some reasons it's not working anymore. For ts files it's working correctly.
VSCode version: 1.60.2
Installed extensions:
- Angular Language Service
- Angular spec generator
- OpenAPI (Swagger) Editor
- Reload
- SVG Viewer
- TODO Highlight
- Visual Studio IntelliCode
- YAML
I don't remember installing one of those and then intellisense for html stop working. I've tried restarting VSCode and the language shown in the bottom bar of VSCode is the right one.

In order to get full angular variable autocomplete feature inside your html file we need to tweak some setting in our workspace tsconfig.json file, Please perform the following steps :-
- Open
tsconfig.jsonfile of your angular project workspace. - set
strictTemplatesflag totruein yourtsconfig.jsonfile.
"angularCompilerOptions": {
"strictTemplates": true
},
- Restart your Visual studio code and then check if suggestion are coming inside your html file.
This is also stated in Angular language plugin's official info page.

Have you tried disabling all the plugins except Angular Lanugage Service ? and if that works just start enabling one by one until it stops working.
Also have you checked the logs of the extensions ? Where are the VSCode error logs for extensions?
