I am not able to install any extensions. I’m on a Macbook Pro with Ventura (13.3.1). After getting the error I have tried manual download/install of .vsix files and get the same errors. Here is the console output:

I have tried to uninstall/re-install VS Code (version 1.77.1) numerous times, but I get the same errors. I’m not sure what else I can try.

  1. Not trying to promote any third party apps but I would recommend you to use AppCleaner to uninstall and remove vscode related files completely and then reinstall again.

    Make sure you install the M1 version of vscode as well.

  2. If you google ""'product.json#extensionEnabledApiProposals' extension 'ms-vscode.vscode-selfhost-test-provider' wants API proposal 'testContinuousRun' but that proposal DOES NOT EXIST"", you’ll probably find the following VS Code issue ticket as the top search result: Insiders console warnings #178482. This points toward this issue ticket in the vscode-selfhost-test-provider repo: fix: remove now-stabilized continuous test run proposal
    #24
    . That fix was merged into the main branch on March 28 2023. At the time of this writing, the latest release tag of vscode-selfhost-test-provider was made on March 27 2023.

    So just wait a bit for the fix in the extension to be released. For the time being, try downgrading VS Code and see if that works around the issue. Or if you don’t actually need/want this extension, you can uninstall it.
