• Snap version:

$snap --version
snap    2.46.1+20.04
snapd   2.46.1+20.04
series  16
ubuntu  20.04
kernel  5.4.0-48-generic

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Use Ubuntu 20.04, check if Chromium is installed (if not, install) Note: Chromium will be installed as Snap automatically

Note: Step 2 and 3 are probably unneccessary, since it seems that there is a problem with the path to the Chrom(e|ium) executable, but these are the steps which produced the current state

2. Install .Net Core 5 RC via snap (Don't use suggested snap alias, instead create symbolic link as described here)

3. Create new Blazor WebAssembly dotnet new blazorwasm

4. Start Visual Studio Code

5. Create Launch configuration

6. Run configuration

Expected behaviour:

• if Chrome is not found, check for Chromium (since it is aliased, this shouldn't be the problem) and launch the project with Chromium, probably with a warning about running a custom/dev version
• as an alternative, provide a better error message, since i have no clue what should be done in this case

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes/No
Not checked with all extensions disabled, but i uninstalled all extensions, uninstalled vscode, deleted the .vscode folder with all plugins, reinstalled the snap and only installed the C#-Extension(due to obvious reasons).

You are using a balzorwasm launch config. This launch config type is contributed by the C# extension. The C# extension is responsible for executing your launch config.
