Not working properly - no bookmark icon, no bookmarks sidebar

[stellarwebworks]

I installed the bookmarks plugin (version 13.1.0) in latest version of Visual Studio Code (1.57.1) but it does not seem to be working properly. When I bookmark a line I expect to see a bookmark icon in the gutter but there is none. Also there is no sidebar as shown in the instructions.
It does work partially in that the bookmarks seem to be created and I can see a little blue mark in the scrollbar which I can click on and it takes me to the line that I bookmarked. I tried uninstalling, restarting VS Code and reinstalling but did not help. Please advise.

Hi @stellarwebworks ,

I have seen the missing Side Bar icon a few times, and up until now, it has always been caused by some issue in the installation process (which is managed by VSCode). It happened not only on this extension, but from other developers too. BTW, I guess two releases ago this was happening a lot for extension developers, while debugging the extensions.

To fix this installation issue, you must reinstall the extension. But you must do a full reinstall, which means:

• Go to the Extensions view
• Select the extension
• Click Uninstall
• Instead of reloading the window as prompted, you must Close all VS Code windows. This will make sure the older installation is fully removed from VS Code internals, once you open VS Code again.
• Open VS Code again
• Go to the Extensions view
• Install the extension again

Please, try these steps to see if it fixes the missing resources.

Hope this helps
