@msjo66 Does the user that's launching VS code (and the Bicep extension) have access to dotnet on the same machine?

Also, did you use a custom dotnet installation path with our extension?

@majastrz Frankly speaking, the problem is not Bicep but dotnet.exe. I'm the owner of dotnet.exe but when I execute dotnet.exe, it returns 'access denied' and it causes following
