Description
🐛 What is the bug? How can we reproduce it?
Please put here any steps, code or any information that can help us
reproduce the error on our side so we can fix it:
- Open a react native project, add another react native project to the workspace.
- We cannot see the react native packager button to be there.
- We see the below in the react native output window
[Debug] Projects found: 2
[Error] Failed to activate the React Native Tools extension (error code 702)```
## Expected behavior
What were you expecting to happen?
React native packager button to be seen.
This issue occurs after React native tools upgrade from 1.12.1 to 1.12.2. With 1.12.1 the logs in the react native window would be
```[Debug] React Native version: errorUnknown
[Debug] react-native package version is not found in /Volumes/workplace/test1. Reason: errorUnknown
[Debug] React Native version: 0.71.8```
