I solved the problem! Inside vsCode I needed to go to my settings. ctrl+shift+p > and then type user settings. This brought up settings.json
Inside the json the path looked like this:
“omnisharp.path”: “C:\Users\Drew\.vscode\extensions\ms-vscode.csharp-1.10.0\bin\omnisharp\OmniSharp.exe”,
I changed it to this:
“omnisharp.path”: “C:\\Users\\Drew\\.vscode\\extensions\\ms-vscode.csharp-1.10.0\\bin\\omnisharp\\OmniSharp.exe”,
The \ were not being escaped and causing an error in the json. Also note that capitilization is important.
the output is
