I'm trying to learn WSO2 MI but I can't seem to get the extension on VS Code to work.

I have Java Version 21 installed and the latest version of VS Code. Installing the extension shows the icon in the sidebar but it doesn't show the UI or the project menu or anything it just loads forever, and the icon has that blue refresh icon which I don't understand what it is.

The VS Code logs show the following:

2026-02-04 11:23:54.216 [error] [Extension Host] error Error: Command failed: "c:\Users\32470\.vscode\extensions\wso2.wso2-platform-1.0.19\resources\choreo-cli\v1.2.212509091800\win32\amd64\bin\choreo.exe" --version

and:

{
  "label": "WSO2 Platform",
  "level": "error",
  "message": "Timeout: Process took too long",
  "time": "2026-02-04T09:23:53.913Z"
}

and:

2026-02-04 11:23:53.918 [error] Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, unlink 'c:\Users\32470\.vscode\extensions\wso2.wso2-platform-1.0.19\resources\choreo-cli\v1.2.212509091800\win32\amd64\bin\choreo.exe'

I tried running VS Code as an Administrator. I tried uninstalling all other extensions to avoid conflicts. I should also note other extensions seem to work fine.
