How do I Uninstall Visual Studio codes and extensions?

To uninstall an extension, select the Manage gear button at the right of an extension entry and then choose Uninstall from the dropdown menu. This will uninstall the extension and prompt you to reload VS Code.

Turns out the extensions are stored under %USER%.vscode\extensions. Deleting that gets rid of them. %USER%\\.vscode\extensions (or) %USERPROFILE%\.vscode\extensions
