no such tool "asm"

Question

I am trying to install golang and run it with visual code. I have followed all the steps to install it, however whenever I run it on my visual code and try to install the recommended features I get the following errors:

Answer 1

I did found the same error.

turn out that my antivirus blocked the asm.exe files. so I have to exclude the go directory from anti-virus scanning. after that re-install go or just repair installation do the work too.
