I’m a high school student, and my class and I just started exploring the world of HTML code. Yesterday, I wrote some basic HTML code and saved it on my computer. Today, I tried to open it, and instead of seeing usual HTML code, the editor showed me a preview.
I tried :
- disabling extensions in VS Code
- opening other HTML files
- opening files with TextEdit and Whisk (both showed me the actual code)

I’m probably encountering a basic problem, maybe it’s not even a problem, but I honestly am lost. I don’t know how to get back to my code…
>Solution :
VS Code doesn’t have built-in support for HTML preview, but there are extensions available in the VS Code Marketplace. Open the Extensions view (Ctrl+Shift+X) and search on ‘live preview’ or ‘html preview’ to see a list of available HTML preview extensions. Then deactivate those plugins.
After the completing above steps, if you are still having the same problem, please try to contact Microsoft Help Page
