VSCode Emmet html boilerplate?

Question

We used to be able to type ! inside an html document in vscode to get html boiler plate content completion as documented here.

However it no longer works. Thoughts?

I noticed that if we type ! and select Edit > Expand Abbreviation, the ! is replaced with boilerplate, but I no longer get the intellisense that was there before.

Update

Looks like we need to do ctrl+shift+p and search for User Settings. Filter for the emmet settings and select the Trigger expansion on tab then the ! is replaced with the corresponding emmet snippet.

I also selected Show suggestions as snippets, but the intellisense / snippet is still not showing up.

if it worked : "cheers .!"

it could be issue with select language mode. on the bottom of visual studio next to LF on your screenshot select language mode and change it to html.
