Images pasted are all blank (bug since 1.0.3)

See original GitHub issue

Description

When pasting an image into Visual Studio Code markdown file, the image will be completely blank with every pixel transparent.

How to reproduce it?

Copy an image into the clipboard;
Press Ctrl+Alt+V and wait for the insertion of the image.

What’s the environment?

OS: Windows 10 Pro Insider Preview 18290.1000
Extension: 1.0.3 (Notice that 1.0.2 does not reproduce this issue)

What happened?

You can see that the image pasted is transparent.

And to reveal it in the explorer, it is also transparent.

But actually, it can be pasted into other applications such as what I’m writing on GitHub issues.

The issue appears to be how PowerShell is writing the image file. If you look at the following script: mushan.vscode-paste-image-1.0.3\res\pc.ps1

Line 18:

$fcb = new-object Windows.Media.Imaging.FormatConvertedBitmap($img, [Windows.Media.PixelFormats]::Rgba64, $null, 0)

It doesn’t seem to like the alpha code in ‘Rgba64’. I’ve tried several formats here, but it seems to be the alpha code. Also appears to be a fix from Issue #29. If you just change it back to ‘Rgb24’, it will work again.
