Q:

Unable to Use SharePoint PNP PowerShell in VSCode

Running this command in VScode doesn't work but it works in PowerShellPlus.
Connect-PnPOnline -Url "https://something.sharepoint.com/" -Credentials $userCredential

Error:
   System.MissingMethodException: Method not found: 'System.Runtime.Remoting.ObjectHandle System.Activator.CreateInstance(System.String, System.String)'.
   at SharePointPnP.PowerShell.Commands.Base.ConnectOnline.ProcessRecord()
   at System.Management.Automation.CommandProcessor.ProcessRecord()

I've tried uninstalling VScode and removing any trace of SharePoint my machine but I'm not able to get past this error.  Any ideas?
Edit:
Following this blog post, I removed and reinstalled the SP PNP module.

Delete all the SharePoint Components from the Control Panel
(Add/Remove)   
Open the GAC location
(C:\windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL), search for the term
SharePoint and delete all the folders. (This is required since the
reference is still old which is used by the PnP commands) 
Re-Start the machine   
Install the latest version of the SharePoint PnP

A:

Here is how I fixed my issue:
1. In VSCode open the Command Palette on Windows or Linux with Ctrl+Shift+P. On macOS, use Cmd+Shift+P.
2. Search for Session.
3. Click on PowerShell: Show Session Menu.
4. Choose one of the ___ (x86) options   
I was using x64 and that clearly didn't work.
