I have had a similar issue in the past https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/173464  

I am having trouble accessing VSCode marketplace through extensions within VSCode.  It has been a problem for quite some time.  This issue has come and gone.  The last time VSCode updated was in June and, I assume, no extensions have updated since then.  Numerous solutions have been recommended and tried:

-	Checking, uninstalling, deactivating antivirus and firewall.
-	Reviewing proxy settings
-	Uninstalling and re-installing VSCode
-	Running the Insiders Edition of VSCode
-	Other actions that I can’t even recall.

None have worked long term.  Once, I was also having a problem reaching github.com in the browser but that has since resolved.  I am not sure if the two are related.  I can access github at the moment.  I manually downloaded the current version of VSC and am currently running the latest.
[vscode-app-1728754946852.log](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/17351084/vscode-app-1728754946852.log)

I have attached the output from developer tools console.  I start VSCode, open dev tools console and select the extensions icon.  I then search for an extension.  This is the output.
