Description

When using the VS Code and the usual Java Extensions (Extension Pack for Java, Language Support(Red Hat), Debugger for Java) the color highlighting of the imports and some variables is kinda odd. In addition to that quick fixes are no longer availible.

This whole setup was working just fine until monday (20.3). This is a company computer so I dont what caused this error.

I've tried to reinstall VS Code aswell as all the extensions and it still appears in older VS Code Versions (1.70.2) and extension versions (down to 1.13).
Sorry if this problem was already mentioned and I was unable to finde the issue and solution for this.

Environment
  • Operating System: Windows 10 Pro
  • JDK version: 17.0.6
  • Visual Studio Code version: 1.76.2
  • Java extension version: 1.16
Current Result

Research direction

Reproduce the reported behavior with Windows 10 Pro, JDK 17.0.6, VS Code 1.76.2, and Java extension 1.16, using the Extension Pack for Java, Language Support for Java(TM) by Red Hat, and Debugger for Java. Compare import and variable highlighting with the expected screenshots and verify whether quick fixes are available. Done means both highlighting and quick fixes work as expected.
