Just installed VSCode and went to install some extensions and noticed that no icons were showing up associated with the extensions. Yes I know thats of no real consequence but it just really stood out compared to the screen shots on the vscode page.
This is what is shown as a screen shot on the vscode page:
This is what I see in vscode:
The basic step is to install vscode-icons into your VSCode from marketplace. After get installed, then go to your extension setting page by two ways: File > Preferences > Settings > Extensions. [Ctrl+,] > Extensions.
You can set the icon in the extension's package. json file, which is also called "extension manifest".
I found the fix was as simple as dragging the window splitter and making it larger. Icons will then appear. The view was simply too compact for the icons apparently.
