[BUG] Playwright version 1.28 required

[gl-aagostino]

Context:

• Playwright Version: [1.32]
• Operating System: [Ubuntu on WSL]
• Node.js version: [14.6]
• Visual Studio Code version: [1.78.2]
• Playwright for VSCode extension version: [1.0.11]
• Browser: [Chromium]
• Extra: [Windows but using WSL]

Describe the bug

For months, seemingly at a random point in time (maybe a VS update..) my playwright stopped working for a specific folder. Every time I opened the extension it said "Playwright version 1.28 or newer required" or something equivalent. I reinstalled everything 100s of times to no avail.

Finally maybe out of frustration, I literally deleted the entire folder that contained all the playwright tests. I then undid this and, voila. Order was restored.

So there's something there, maybe in VS code or this extension, that was maybe keeping a cached version value of what was installed. None of the folder contents changed, I literally just deleted it and restored it.
