Goto File -> Save As, in "Save as Type" select No Extension and save the file with file name "name".ipynb

I had a similar issue with VSCode. To resolve this Press-> CTRL+SHIFT+P and then JSON: Clear Schema Cache

I had a similar issue - I believe it has to do with the update to VS Code notebooks.

I resolved it with the following steps:

  • Open settings.json (CTRL + SHIFT + P --> Open Settings JSON)
  • Change "workbench.editorAssociations": {"*.ipynb": "jupyter.notebook.ipynb"} to "workbench.editorAssociations": {"*.ipynb": "jupyter.notebook"}. You're just deleting the .ipynb portion.

This should cause VS Code to read/write the notebooks correctly.

Details on the GitHub thread that led me to this solution can be found here.

I completely uninstalled VS code and It started working for .ipynb files. Followed the steps below. I have referred this solution from another thread of stackoverflow. I am not able to find the same hence adding answer below.

  1. Uninstallation from Add remove program
  2. Delete folder "C:\Users[user Name]\AppData\Roaming\Code".
  3. Reinstalled VScode with all extensions.

I had the same problem. In your VS code environment,

  • search Jupyter in the Extensions
  • uninstall Jupyter and re-install it
  • You save the code without any changes.
