Here you can se i have a buffer open and f that open files works

But if i close all buffer like this i cant use any vim command

The vim extension is active but i cant even type ":" for put a command

Reproduce the problem in VS Code with all buffers closed, using the keybindings and screenshots in the issue as the scenario. Inspect the extension's handling of Vim input and command execution when no editor buffer is open; done means Vim commands, including ':' and the listed keybindings, work in that state.
