[YousefSaber]

although that JDK is installed on my OS VSCode or your extension can't detect it!!

• Operating System: elementary OS v5.0 juno
• JDK version: 1.8.0_181
• Visual Studio Code version: v1.28.2
• Java extension version: v0.33.0

have you tried setting "java.home" in VS Code's settings.json?

[YousefSaber]

@fbricon nothing works it tells there is a missing folder ??

You can try the following:

"java.home": "/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64/",

How did you install vscode? via flatpack?
In any case, try to point to a JDK in another directory

@snjeza @fbricon it's over nothing works I'm tired of trying I'll only use VSCode on Ubuntu since it has the largest community and I'll post issues only from there
