Visual Studio doesn't list all the words for auto completing code

I recently changed computer and had to reinstall visual studio, I don’t know why but now visual studio no longer gives me the automatic list of words etc that i could use to complete code.
I have tried both visual studio code and professional, both have this issue. Some keyboard shortcuts like using ctrl+. to extract a method also don’t work.
How would i fix this?

Hi Marcie,

Please follow the instruction on this website and make sure all required extensions are installed: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/other/unity

If the issue persists, please check the console of VS Code (not Unity!). If the .NET Framework 4.7.1 (Developer Pack) is mentioned there, download and install it from the official Microsoft website. Here is the link: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-framework/net471

Depending on your version of Unity, it might be that you will have to install the “Visual Studio Code Editor” package in Window > Package Manager in Unity.

Did this help you fix the problem? :slight_smile:
