Same issue on my brand new Apple M2 Mac Mini. Running latest Insiders. I thought I was going crazy.
Works fine on latest version of insiders.
Yeah fixed now. Thanks everybody!
Not working for me. I am using
Not working for me after updating today (May 09, 2023) Version: 1.78.0 (Universal) Commit: Date: 2023-05-03T20:11:00.813Z Electron: 22.4.8 Chromium: 108.0.5359.215 16.17.1 V8: 10.8.168.25-electron.0 OS: Darwin x64 18.7.0 Sandboxed: Yes
That doesn't kill the process. It just suspends it. Just be aware of that (if you do it a lot ;)
same for me, no control-c or any kill commands will work: Version: 1.78.1 Commit: Date: 2023-05-04T09:57:42.343Z (5 days ago) Electron: 22.5.1 Chromium: 108.0.5359.215 16.17.1 V8: 10.8.168.25-electron.0 OS: Darwin x64 18.7.0 Sandboxed: No
It stopped working for me due to an extension which had created a key binding starting with so I removed the key binding and it started working. helped me.
what extension was causing the issue?
I forgot the name but you can check your keyboard bindings.
I don't have the same extensions as you?
Hi, this "Ctrl+C" (terminate task) feature suddenly stopped working a few days ago for us as well: the "^C" still displays in the terminal but without any effect and there is not a single shortcut associated to Ctrl+C and no way to add one This is a huge pain as we simply cannot work anymore using vs-code, this was such a central feature There is just so much content on the topic online, yet no simple solution: What happened? Why did vs-code team do this? How is there not a simple option in Keyboard Shortcuts (JSON) to add it back? Thanks in advance to those currently working on a solution
what is shown in the vscode status bar when you press ?
it was a bug we introduced and fixed shortly afterwards, see One of the downsides of using Insiders is occasionally things like this slip in.
Never knew I was on those buggy Insiders builds. Hot damn. You need better wording on your main site. In any case, there is still no fix for this for Insiders and I am not really looking forward to installing and setting everything up from scratch with Universal.
