ElixirLS - Elixir client: couldn't create connection to server. Windows 10 Pro

Hello people.

Nice to meet you all!

I’m new here and sorry for my bad english. I’m trying to learn Elixir on my PC with Windown 10 Pro and I have problem at the begining in VS code.
1> ElixirLS - Elixir client: couldn’t create connection to server.
2> The ElixirLS - Elixir server crashed 5 times in the last 3 minutes. The server will not be restarted. See the output for more information.
3> Pending response rejected since connection got disposed.

Tried to reinstall everything, but problem still exist.
Current version of ElixirLS: Elixir support and debugger is 0.23.1

Any advices?

Thank you in advance

Hi. In my experience, the language server is a bit flakey on Windows. Sometimes I close the editor, delete the .elixir_ls and _build folders, compile it and hope for the best after I reopen the editor.

There is an output window where you can see what the extension is doing in more detail.

The error message is telling you that you need to install git.
