ViewsYou don't have an extension for debugging C#, Should we find a C# extension in the Marketplace?
I'm trying to debug a C# script using VSCode. but when I hit F5 it shows
But I do have the C# extension installed in VSCode

Previously, VSCode used to resolve all the necessary dependencies and create the necessary files for debugging a C# script. Maybe the latest update has some issues?

If you have issues with that I suggest going to 'view' and then press command pallet or press Ctrl+Shift+P and then search 'generate assets for build and debug' and if you want it to open up a new window and execute your code instead of it running in the terminal: Go open .vscode Then select launch.json and then go to where it says console and write this instead:
"console": "externalTerminal",

The correct one for me happened to be the second process on the list. Then, unity opened the following window, which I had never seen before
As far as I can tell, there have been updates that disable debugging by default. In the image below you will find the setting to enable/disable this.
Note: This can also be done using the shortcut at the bottom right hand corner of your editor:
