Ability to clone Git repository gone.

[ion-mironov]

Type: Bug

VS Code suddenly no longer allows ability to clone Git repository (again). Source Control says no providers registered. Git extension doesn't exist. Updated Git from 2.40 to 2.41, it didn't make a difference. No viable solutions online as they're all outdated and completely useless. I've spent the last hour trying to find answers.

Everything was literally working fine two hours ago when I last used VSC. Ctrl+Shift+P and searching for "Git" will not pull up anything.

VS Code version: Code 1.79.2 (695af09, 2023-06-14T08:57:04.379Z)
OS version: Windows_NT x64 10.0.19045

I have no clue what you're talking about when you say to do that. I'm a novice to VS Code.

But, it does not matter as I found what the problem was: For some unknown reason, VS Code changed my profile to Default. Switching back to my actual profile brought everything back to normal.
