Description

I am on Windows 10 and using Visual Studio Code 1.43.1
I downloaded the zip file and exactly following the instructions. I don't see anything happening when I type <my- or hover.

Do I need to edit this syntax?
"html.customData": ["./html.html-data.json"],

I ultimately want to edit the settings.json at %AppData%\Code\User with a custom filename.html-data.json for distribution.

Research direction

Reproduce the sample on Windows 10 with VS Code 1.43.1 using the downloaded zip, then check the instructions and the html.html-data.json reference. Verify whether the settings.json entry works with a custom filename under %AppData%\Code\User. Done means the <my- completion or hover appears and the documented configuration works for distribution.
