Providing additional information that might help fix the problem (or at least help others with the same symptoms, scroll down)
- VSCode Version: 1.98.0
- Local OS Version: Windows 10, 22H2
- Remote OS Version: -
- Remote Extension/Connection Type: WSL (and also Remote - Tunnels)
Steps to Reproduce:
- Connect to a remote Linux host using ssh: Remotes (Tunnels/SSH)

There is no data provider registered that can provide view data.
Refresh shows this error message:
Error running command remote-wsl.explorer.refresh: command 'remote-wsl.explorer.refresh' not found. This is likely caused by the extension that contributes remote-wsl.explorer.refresh.
It works as expected if I open a "New Window" which is not connected to a remote host:
