Some Emmet abbreviations in VSC not working, like ‘!’ or using ‘*’

by

The v1.69.2 recovery release is out now. Emmet in html is working as it should for me now.

Looks like it will be in the Recovery Release, see https://github.com/issues?q=is%3Aissue+label%3Acandidate+repo%3Amicrosoft%2Fvscode+repo%3Amicrosoft%2Fvscode-internalbacklog+repo%3Amicrosoft%2Fvscode-remote-release+milestone%3A%22June+2022+Recovery+2%22+.

Don’t know when the recovery release to Stable – presumably v1.69.2 – will be released. The .1 release is out and the fix is not in it.

It has been fixed though, see https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/154375, and should be in the Insiders Build tomorrow (07/13/2022).

Testing the latest Insiders: ! is working. As is ul>li*3 type expansions (although that never stopped working for me – but it has been reported elsewhere). Should be in the v1.69.2 release out soon.

It is a known issue with the v1.69 release, see html emmet suggestion not automatically display or https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/154517 for example. Lots of issues on github on ! and * not working.

So the emmet snippet will not appear automatically when you type !, but you can press Ctrl/Cmd+Space (which is the command Trigger Suggest) to make it appear and select normally.

Try Ctrl/Cmd+Space for anything emmet-related nnnnnot working in vscode v1.69.

You could also go back to v1.68 to solve the issue.
