Hi, my name’s Aaron Powell and I’m a Cloud Advocate at Microsoft. My area of specialty is front-end web dev and .NET (especially F#), but I enjoy doing silly things with technology.
It would, but unfortunately there's no API that's exposed to extensions that allows you to disable an extension.
I did some digging around the VS Code source and it looks like disabling extensions requires writing to one of the databases that VS Code uses internally, not just setting some config flags or anything.
Because of that I decided I wouldn't try and disable (don't want to risk corrupting the database) the extensions, just remove them.
