I had the same issue. So, I solved it by adding

"files.associations": {
  "*.css": "css",
  "css": "css"
}

to my my settings.json file. Don't know is it is going to help you, but anyway. Good luck!

Now even though I’ve cut out the bootstrap and even tried making another simple bellow world page just to check , simple css like color won’t work. I’ve tried internal and inline Internal seems to be working for a complicated homepage but doesn’t for a simple hello world

EDIT- here’s my code And
This is it without bootstrap

r/vscode on Reddit: SCSS stopped working in VS Code
August 13, 2019 -

I’m building a website on VS Code consisting of HTML and SCSS code. When I open the website on Google Chrome, using the Live Server extension for VS Code or from the file on my computer, it should show all the changes I made to HTML and SCSS. However, only HTML changes show up in the browser. Any changes made to SCSS don’t show up. This problem started about two weeks ago. Before then, all changes to SCSS were showing up without issue.

I’ve tried opening the project with Live Server and from my file on my computer, a hard refresh on Google Chrome, reinstalling the Live Server extension on VS Code, and updating VS Code. None of these steps solved the problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
