I have this same issue, and I don't see that there was a response to the original. Where can I go for help?

I too had this issue. After attempting to resolve the issue using a bunch of different troubleshooting tips available and not having any luck, i ran the Help:Extension Bisect tool available in Command Pallett. Although this tool definitively find a problem, it did suggest i had a possible conflict between the nRF Connect extension (previously installed) and the ESP-IDF extension. To resolve the problem I created a new Profile, deleted the ESP-IDF attempted install in my Default Profile, created a new blank ESPIDF Profile and installed the ESP-IDF extension in the new Profile. Bingo, i can now see all the IDF:Explorer Commands and continue with the install.
