Code Insiders - `end of central directory record signature not found` about polacode

[octref]

@MrCroft Would you mind following up with @joaomoreno at microsoft/vscode#42229? This could be affecting many other users too.

I found this issue: microsoft/vscode#42229

I'm guessing you are using a proxy server? Anyway this should be reported to VS Code, not this extension.

[MrCroft]

@octref I've found that issue also. But I'm not using a proxy. I didn't mention that I'm not using a proxy because I thought that being able to install any other extension implied that it's not that issue.
Anyway, for the time being I've managed to install it from disk, after downloading the extension.

Chiming in here, I have the same error when trying to install - I'm not using a proxy either

This is a VS Code issue that's possibly caused further upstream by yauzl. See microsoft/vscode#42229 (comment) if you are interested.

Meanwhile if uninstall -> install does not work, try removing the pnp.polacode-0.2.2 folders from your extension folder and reinstall. If still no luck, try using the VSIX package to install

Ok, there was no pnp.polacode file or folder in %USERPROFILE%\.vscode\extensions

Tried to load the linked extension and for some reason it won't load in code

I used the code --install-extension to install it and renamed it from what it was to code --install-extension myextension.vsix
