VS Code – how to rollback extension/install specific extension version

by

From v1.30 release notes: install previous versions of extensions.

You can now go back to a previous version of an extension if there are
issues with the current version. VS Code provides an Install Another
Version action on an installed extension which shows a dropdown of
available versions.

The option to install another version is in the context menu. Or the gear icon for each extension.

For me when I do this – without “Disable Auto Updating Extensions” (I assume that the Debugger for Chrome is such an extension) it does not auto-update on reload or close/open but shows a button for that extension to install the latest version instead.

So it appears you don’t have to disable all auto-updating extensions just to revert one extension to an older version and keep it at that older version. [leave a comment if you find that isn’t true, thanks]

revert extension 1

revert extension 2
