Description

I have installed the reason-vscode extension and reinstalled plus enabled&disabled. I am getting always following an error, when I enable the extension and reload the workspace.

```
[Info - 1:52:50 AM] Connection to server got closed. Server will restart.
[Info - 1:52:51 AM] Connection to server got closed. Server will restart.
[Info - 1:52:51 AM] Connection to server got closed. Server will restart.
[Info - 1:52:51 AM] Connection to server got closed. Server will restart.
[Error - 1:52:51 AM] Connection to server got closed. Server will not be restarted.

The Reason Language Server server crashed 5 times in the last 3 minutes. The server will not be restarted.
Source: reason-vscode (Extension)
```

I can not find the file `reason-language-server.exe` is it called `bin.exe` now? However there is this file bin.exe in the the vscode extension directory of this extension. Why it named like `bin.exe`? If I would lookup what processes are running, then a process called bin.exe would not associate it with this extension and might think of malware.

Research direction

Start with the reason-vscode extension behavior on Windows and the reported reason-language-server.exe versus bin.exe naming. Reproduce the repeated crash and restart limit from the issue, then determine whether the executable naming or the server crash is responsible. Done means the language server starts reliably and the executable is clearly identified.
