Are you clicking the Run Code button from the top right corner? Please open the drop down list and select Run Java instead.

Or you can click the Run | Debug CodeLens above the main method.

[YuriAz]

Yes, I'm clicking Run Code in the top right corner.

If I click on Run Java:

Looks like the problem is solved.

The Run Code command is contributed by an extension called Code Runner. It can only deal with java files which does not depend on any other third-party dependencies.

Please use Run Java or Debug Java when you are working on a project, not a single java file.
