Issue

This Content is from Stack Overflow. Question asked by Taylor Brown

I’m trying to run a C program in VSCode. I am working to get a valid launch.json file, but it’s complaining about the "type": "cppvsdbg" line, saying that the “Configured debug type ‘cppvsdbg’ is installed but not supported in this environment.”

I’m running a mac, OS Monterey 12.3, on an M1 Max chip. My VSCode version is up-to-date, “1.71.0 (Universal)”.
