Visual Studio Code: The Solidity Language Server server crashed 5 times in the last 3 minutes. The server will not be restarted

I am working on Win10 and getting this error from VSCode after installing the Solidity extension and then opening a .sol file:

[Error - 14:16:07] (node:10264) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection (rejection id: 2): TypeError: Path must be a string. Received null
[Error - 14:16:07] (node:10264) DeprecationWarning: Unhandled promise rejections are deprecated. In the future, promise rejections that are not handled will terminate the Node.js process with a non-zero exit code.

This is happening again with vscode@1.45.1 and vscode-solidity@0.0.73 on my macOS@10.15.4:

My settings:

{
  "solidity.compileUsingRemoteVersion": "0.6.8+commit.0bbfe453",
  "solidity.enableLocalNodeCompiler": false,
  "solidity.packageDefaultDependenciesContractsDirectory": "",
  "solidity.packageDefaultDependenciesDirectory": "node_modules"
}
