I am a new user so might be doing something wrong but I tried to follow
“Getting Started · Julia in VS Code”
specifically
“To run the Hello World program, click Run: Julia File in Terminal play button in the top-right side of the editor.”
This ran the debugger
CTRL-F5 does the same
the extension is version 1.08
Julia is 1.52

having looked through similar postings it seems that the problem came up a few times (also as git issues) maybe for now just change the basic introduction in the documentation so it works?
sorry for barging into open doors but the experience was quite disconcerting for a newbie
