Error "No folder is open." while trying to select kit with cmake:quickstart-CodePudding

I watched a couple of tutorials on how to create a project with CMake in VS Code. When I select any kit with command cmake:quickstart for my project, it just throws the error "No folder is open". What is the problem?

CodePudding user response：

Yes, it seems broken in version 1.13.40, which VS Code pulled in mid-January.

It will be fixed, hopefully in the version 1.13.41: possibly fix here

As a workaround, install one of the previous versions:

VS Code Install Another Version

Then select:

Do not forget to reload VS Code.
