Research direction
Review the linked pull request #14382 in the vscode-cpptools repository first, then reproduce the reported sequence with cpp-devtools.enableCppCodeEditingTools enabled: update the C/C++ extension and use Restart Extensions. Done means the DevTools tools still work afterward without requiring Reload Window.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
When DevTools is used for a C/C++ tool ("cpp-devtools.enableCppCodeEditingTools": true), and then the C/C++ extension is updated and Restart Extensions is used, then the DevTools tools stop working until a Reload Window happens.
