Ctrl + Shift + p

and commanded

But then showed

No Commnads Mathing

Additionally, I couldn't install all other extensions. What should I do?

Ctrl + Shift + P opens the command-palette, which can be used to run commands based on their "pretty name".

The easiest way to install extensions, is to first open the "Quick Open" interface (Ctrl + P), and then type ext install <extension>.

You can also install extensions directly from the command-palette, by opening it, and typing Extensions: Install Extension, and then selecting (or typing) the name of an extension.

It's worth noting that when you run the Extensions: Install Extension command in the command-palette, all it does is open the "Quick Open" interface, and then insert ext install into it.
