In VScode, I used to be able to go 'Run' -> 'Run without debugging' and if the 'Web server (web-javascript)' was chosen then the Flutter app would open in debug mode in Chrome. This used to open a new Chrome window for the app to be displayed in. I'm not sure what I've done but this no longer works. I now get the message below showing in the debug console. I have tried to go to the localhost link in Chrome but I just get a blank screen and no errors in the Chrome console. I've tried downloading the Dart extension in Chrome but this doesn't help.
Launching lib\main.dart on Web Server in debug mode...
Waiting for connection from Dart debug extension at http://localhost:51367
So far I have tried reinstalling VScode and Flutter, reinstalling the Dart and Flutter extensions. I've even tried to uninstall VScode and remove all the extension and settings files that get left behind (like mentioned here). I've set Flutter up as the Flutter website says every time but none of this has helped and I have no idea what has gone wrong. Could anyone help?
In case it helps, here is the Flutter doctor output:

Last resort (maybe someone has a better solution). Make a new project and copy the lib across. Add anything needed in the pubspec.yaml
