Configuration files

Make sure that application.cfg and start.cfg contains the following headers respectively.

<application xmlns="http://schemas.taskletfactory.com/MobileWMS/Application"
			 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
			 xsi:schemaLocation="http://schemas.taskletfactory.com/MobileWMS/Application http://schemas.taskletfactory.com/MobileWMS/Application.xsd">

<start xmlns="http://schemas.taskletfactory.com/MobileWMS/Start"
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
	   xsi:schemaLocation="http://schemas.taskletfactory.com/MobileWMS/Start http://schemas.taskletfactory.com/MobileWMS/Start.xsd"
	   language="en"
	   screenOrientation="Portrait">

Update schema files

As the schema files are downloaded on first use, they may need to be updated from time to time, as more features are added in the configuration.
This is done by deleting the existing schema files in the following directory.

%userprofile%\.lemminx\cache\http\schemas.taskletfactory.com\MobileWMS

Troubleshooting

If the above doesn't work, please restart VS Code.

If it still doesn't work, then an executable file from Red Hat might be blocked by Windows. This can be checked by opening Windows Security and click Virus & threat protection → Protection History to find recent blocks.

If a file from the Red Hat extension has been blocked, it can be unblocked following this guide: (external site)

Typically similar to this Power Shell:

Add-MpPreference -AttackSurfaceReductionOnlyExclusions "%userprofile%\.vscode\extensions\redhat.vscode-xml-0.24.0-win32-x64\server\lemminx-win32.exe"
