How to enable IntelliSense for C++ in Visual Studio Code?

I'm coding in C++ using Visual Studio Code but IntelliSense doesn't seem to work, I've downloaded the extension and used the IntelliSense reset command but it still refuses to work. What should I do?

Just after that, once you create a c++ file (.cpp) intellisense should be enabled as you can see here:
