After backing up settings about other languages, you can delete the follwoing folders to reset VS Code. Then install other needed extensions.

Windows - Delete %APPDATA%\Code and %USERPROFILE%\.vscode.
macOS - Delete $HOME/Library/Application Support/Code and ~/.vscode.
Linux - Delete $HOME/.config/Code and ~/.vscode.

You can uninstall it from the command line. From the registry (regedit). Open the key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

Select the Uninstall key and "Find" from the "Edit" menu. Search for "Java." This will show you which subkey the Java is located under. Identify the "UninstallString." keystring. Use this command to uninstall Java.
