I append "extensionsAny" to "extensionEnabledApiProposals"."ms-vscode.remote-explorer" in "C:\Users\guanz\AppData\Local\Programs\Microsoft VS Code\resources\app\product.json", then the explorer works well.
Is this a problem of vscode itself ?

{
...
  "extensionEnabledApiProposals": {
 ...
  "ms-vscode.remote-explorer": [
	"contribViewsRemote",
	"extensionsAny" // added
    ],
}

Hello! Could you list the version of your remote-explorer extension? You can find this by going to the extensions tab then searching for remote explorer in the marketplace and the version should be listed to the right of the extension name after you click on the search result and would look something like: v0.1.2022091309

I had the same exact issue and this solution also worked for me.

Version v0.1.2022092609 Pre-release.

Where can I find product.json on Linux because I got the same issue here. There is no product.json anywhere in my $HOME/.vscode directory.

Hello- can someone verify if this is fixed? We pushed a fix two days ago on the most recent version of remote-explorer.
