Hi @gcampbell-msft @PILIX123, it seems to have the same root cause as #4424

[PILIX123]

i will make a fork this weekend with the patch i found the other day and we could try and see if this still happens? @Amy-Li03

[PILIX123]

@Amy-Li03 https://github.com/PILIX123/vscode-cmake-tools/tree/main this branch has the potential fix i was talking about. can you try and see if it fixes it, if so im going to open a PR

[Amy-Li03]

@PILIX123 Thanks for your fix!

After installed the VSIX built from https://github.com/PILIX123/vscode-cmake-tools/tree/main branch, this issue was fixed. But the VSXI version of cmake tools is 1.13.0, is this the correct version number?

[PILIX123]

The version number should match when the PR is merged correct?
