I downloaded and installed the latest version and used it for a few weeks. I the process of learning how it worked, I loaded several extensions. Explored they and then uninstalled them. At the end of this nothing seamed to work as it should, the natural thing for me was to uninstall and then reinstall. directions I read said to goto the applications folder, locate visual studio code app and move it to trash. Which I did. Shut down and restarted the machine. Went back to the website and downloaded and installed another copy for MAC. When installed it was the exact version as before with all the sites, code and extensions as before.

I have tried every thing I know to get a totally fresh copy installed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
