Extension Fails to start using PowerShell 7 if Windows PowerShell module path is above the PS7 module path in $PSMODULEPATH

Inizia riproducendo il problema di avvio dell’estensione VS Code con il percorso dei moduli di Windows PowerShell precedente al percorso di PowerShell 7 in $PSMODULEPATH, utilizzando le versioni e lo scenario di installazione indicati nell’issue. Determina la causa del problema di avvio e verifica che l’estensione si avvii normalmente con questo ordine dei percorsi; non sono specificati file sorgente o test particolari.

Prerequisites

• I have written a descriptive issue title.
• I have searched all open and closed issues to ensure it has not already been reported.
• I have read the troubleshooting guide.
• I am sure this issue is with the extension itself and does not reproduce in a standalone PowerShell instance.
• I have verified that I am using the latest version of Visual Studio Code and the PowerShell extension.
• If this is a security issue, I have read the security issue reporting guidance.

Summary

Hi,

This is the second time when I face this situation.
Scenario: Fresh install of Visual Studio Code (VSC), then install PowerShell extension from Microsoft. Upon requesting to trust publisher, I press A (always trust) in the terminal window and then nothing happens. I leave it for 1-2h without nothing to happen and then force to stop it. Restarting VSC and Windows PowerShell (x64) is never loading, the bottom-right icon is spinning forever. Switching to Windows PowerShell (x86) is working. The first time when this happened was 2-3 years ago and I remember I've spent also lot of time trying to figure out how to fix this. I discovered the fix by mistake: Found a post about OneDrive somehow corrupting some PowerShell (psm/psd) files from Documents folder or someting. Running chkdsk from command propmt fixed the issue. But now this doesn't seems to have any effect. Any ideas what can I do?

Thanks,
Marius.
