[CLOSED] Vega Studio: Visual Studio Code Marketplace Issues – Cannot Install / Extension no longer available Message

Vega Open Beta Announcements

Visual Studio Code Marketplace is having issues (ref GitHub Issue 269737).

You may encounter the following (confusing) behaviors:

  1. Vega Studio in Visual Studio Extensions may show:

    ⚠️ This extension is no longer available on the Extension Marketplace.

    This is not true, the Vega Studio extension is still available.
    Multiple extensions seem to be affected.

  2. Vega Studio may fail to install from the marketplace during SDK installation (falling back to a tarball version distributed with the SDK) or from command line:

    $ code --install-extension amazon-devices.kepler-studio
Installing extensions…
Extension ‘amazon-devices.kepler-studio’ not found.
Make sure you use the full extension ID, including the publisher, e.g.: ms-dotnettools.csharp
Failed Installing Extensions: amazon-devices.kepler-studio

    You may safely continue using the extension installed from the SDK tarball (v0.21.0).

    If you want to take advantage of more frequent updates of the Visual Studio Marketplace distribution (v0.21.1), you should be able to install it from Visual Studio Extensions panel UI, but, please, first uninstall the tarball version (0.21.0).

The above mentioned problem has been fixed by Microsoft and you should not experience it anymore.
