Pinned extension version

[jalanh11640]

In our devcontainer.json file, we specify "ms-vscode.cpptools@1.22.11 in customizations: vscode: extensions. This nicely allows us to pin a version of an extension that works in our container.

I've noticed that the extensions list, the cpptools extension has an Update button. Is there a setting that can hide the update button if the extension is pinned to a specific version?

Thanks!

Thanks for sharing this! I believe setting "extensions.autoUpdate": false would be the main option here, but cc @sandy081 in case I'm missing anything.

Thanks for the answer. I’d prefer to allow other extensions to update automatically so that’s not a desirable option. But thanks! I’ll just live with the update badge.

No, there is not any such setting support this
