I have a problem with Visual Studio Code and Emmet;

Whenever I try to use the tab key it will NOT expand in Visual Studio.

Is Emmet broken? What steps should I take to make it work again?

Thanks, tuto

To make it work again properly, follow these steps:

File >> Preferences >> Settings >> Extensions >> Edit in the settings.json file

Add this line as well to the settings.json file:
