This how to manually install it on Windows:

Download latest terraform-ls from https://releases.hashicorp.com/terraform-ls/
Unzip and copy the file to one of your user folders (ex. %USERPROFILE%\.terraform)
Add the following to the end of the settings.json vsCode config file:

    "terraform.languageServer": {
        "external": true,
        "pathToBinary": "C:/Users/[USER_NAME]/.terraform/terraform-ls",
        "args": [
            "serve"
        ]
    },
