[server] Checking /.vscode-server/cli/servers/Stable-fabdb6a30b49f79a7aba0f2ad9df9b399473380f/log.txt and /.vscode-server/cli/servers/Stable-fabdb6a30b49f79a7aba0f2ad9df9b399473380f/pid.txt for a running server...
I have the the two files in the server, it doesn't exist!

and I have tried all the ways above but it doesn't work.
Successfully logged into my account on the remote system via ssh and accessed its files as usual, but it says "Connected to remote". But when clicking on "Open Folder", nothing happens! And it always shows "Opening Remote".
Actual Behavior

Research direction
Start by reviewing the Remote-SSH log output for the server check and the linked issue #9553. Reproduce the connection, then use Open Folder and observe where the remote session remains stuck. Done means the remote server check completes and opening a folder works without remaining on “Opening Remote”.
