'Live Server is Working but button is not showing on vscode?
Earlier Live Server Button (Go Live) was easily visible but now it no more visible.
P.S.- It works with Cmd + L -> Cmd + O, but button in not visible.
What could be the possible reason behind this?????
Following is the setting (json of it)
Solution 1:[1]
Right click on the status bar at the bottom and make sure the Live Server (Extension) is selected. That will hide/unhide the 'Go Live' button on status bar.
Solution 2:[2]
you can also active your server by alt + L + O keep in mind that you have to open with any folder either it have files or empty
Solution 3:[3]
In the case when you only open the file, not the the folder, not only Go Live icon will not be appeared in status bar but also even Live Server (Extension) will not be listed by right clicking on status bar. So you have to open folder not just the file.

@SomeEarth - Just to trump your dumbness I offer you, and any poor unfortunates who arrive here via google, this observation...
When the server is already active it displays Port: 5500 not Go Live
I know. I'll show myself out! ?

- Go to live-server > config tab in extension settings.
- Look for > Advance Custom Browser Cmd Line
- tap on Edit settings.json
- on 4th line you may find it... "liveServer.settings.showOnStatusbar": false,
- In my case it was false and i changed it to 'true'
- Restart vscode and Enjoy...

this guy explains it really well in his youtube channel, somewhere around 4:25 installing an extension called "live server" by Ritwick Dey https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Du9mlokcHnI
