Maven for Java extension not activated even workspace contains pom.xml file

[doggy8088]

Describe the bug

I can't see Maven for Java extension been activated after project been loaded.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Clone my project

   git clone https://github.com/doggy8088/spring-boot-jpa-demo.git
   code spring-boot-jpa-demo
   

2. I can't see MAVEN extension been activated. I do have a pom.xml in the workspace.

   

Expected behavior

I expected the MAVEN extension will be loaded if my workspace contains a pom.xml file. I don't know it seems unstable.

Environments (please complete the following information as much as possible):

• OS: Windows 10
• VS Code version: v1.71.2
• Extension version v0.39.0

Screenshots

Additional context

I do have a workaround by execute F1 > Maven: Add a dependency command once.

If the MAVEN extension has been activated successfully, you can try run Developer: Reload Window command. The MAVEN extension will not be loaded again after vscode window reloaded.

It was not activated somehow. Check Log(Extension Host) for logs about extension activation.

I think the problem could be here. I installed too many extensions in my VSCode.
