Type: Bug
Issue Description
The latest version of the C# Dev Kit appears to require 2.147.94 or higher, but 2.147.94 is currently listed as a pre-release. While I can get around the error by installing the pre-release, it would be nice if the requirement was satisfied by the latest stable release.
Maybe it's currently being built and deployed, but wanted to report it either way.
Steps to Reproduce
Update C# Dev Kit to the latest version 3.40.204 (happened automatically to me when VS code updated to 1.138.0)
Expected Behavior
The C# Dev Kit loads up without error and C# features work out of the box (intellisense, find references, etc).
Actual Behavior
The below warning is displayed and cannot be satisfied even by clicking the "Upgrade" button.
Extension version: 2.140.9
VS Code version: Code 1.138.0 (7debcd0e2acdea1c52de81bf9ee1620444407dda, 2026-09-15T07:24:32Z)

Issue Description
The latest version of the C# Dev Kit appears to require 2.147.94 or higher, but 2.147.94 is currently listed as a pre-release. While I can get around the error by installing the pre-release, it would be nice if the requirement was satisfied by the latest stable release.
Maybe it's currently being built and deployed, but wanted to report it either way.
Steps to Reproduce
Update C# Dev Kit to the latest version 3.40.204 (happened automatically to me when VS code updated to 1.138.0)
Expected Behavior
The C# Dev Kit loads up without error and C# features work out of the box (intellisense, find references, etc).
Actual Behavior
The below warning is displayed and cannot be satisfied even by clicking the "Upgrade" button.
