Once Try this Fix Guys…

Go to File -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts in the menu of VSCodeEditor.

Search for “live” . You will get -> Live Server:Open with Live Server. Click on it. Set a Unique Key Binding (Mine is “Alt+m”) . Press Enter . Now Check the Right Click Context Menu

I don’t no but this may work … ### Just Try. 😃
