Thanks for reporting this issue! Since Java is embedded in the extension, the error āError: could not find java.dllā could indicate a problem with the installation or that some files were blocked by security software.
I would suggest you to reinstall the extension and at the same time try checking your firewall or antivirus if they flagged and blocked the extension or any of its files.
Reinstall the Extension
Uninstall the extension completely.
Restart Visual Studio.
Reinstall the latest version of the extension to ensure all files are properly installed.
Check for Security Software Blocking
Your firewall or antivirus might have flagged and blocked the embedded Java files.
Try checking your antivirus/firewall after reinstalling the extension.
In that case you could add an exception for the extension in your security software.
If the issue persists, please let us know!
Workaround: Manually specify a Java Installation
Another possible but less ideal solution would be to install java on your machine and let the extension use that installation.
To specify a JRE, go to Extensions > SonarQube for Visual Studio > Optionsā¦ > SonarQube for Visual Studio > General > Java Home , add the path to your JRE, and restart your IDE to apply the setting.
After installing the recent update for both VS2022 and SQ extension the error output log looks slightly better but still unable to connect to server.

I switched on Verbos logs and also updated Visual Studio again, but that didnāt help much so I just went ahead and installed JDK and specified the path in options.
