I install the Fira Code like everyone, selecting all the files and installing it in all the users of my windows pc, then in vsc select "Fira Code" as source but it does not look like it should be, here is a screenshot of how it looks and the configuration.

This is not Fira Code, this is some fallback font. Check your installation or maybe reboot

If you go to C:\Windows\Fonts is Fira Code there? Is Fira Code visible in any other programs?

then click in "install"

This will install the font in the User's Fonts folder, not in the Windows Fonts folder. That may make a difference.

Un-install the fonts. Then re-install the fonts by

  • select the font files
  • right-click on the those selected font files
  • then select "Install for All Users"

That will install the fonts in C:/Windows/Fonts/

Sorry, no idea how to help you

If the font is showing correctly in other applications and not primarily in VSCode, then it is possible that your setting JSON file of VSCode is corrupted!

If the Fira code is already in the C:/Windows/Fonts directory then you don't need to uninstall anything
