VS Code + Go extension: Turn off Workspace loading

I am using the primary Go extension. I use VS Code a lot, but I am only rarely working in Go. I also use Azure, but I do not use or want the SDK associated with Go.

After installing the extension, I see the following error:

Error loading workspace: err: exit status 1: stderr: go: github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-go@v46.0.0+incompatible: missing go.sum entry; to add it: go mod download github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-go : packages.Load error

I think I understand the error and the problem, but I do not know how I can tell VS Code, "hey, I don't want the Azure Go SDK."

What do I need to do in VS Code to be able to flag that I do not want this, or to turn it off? Right now, the error shows those spinning arrows of death, which makes me think that there is a background task that keeps searching for the Azure SDK. Regardless, I would rather not have bogus errors cluttering my IDE.

Regardless whether you want Azure Go SDK or not, the Go code in your project is already using github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-go@v46.0.0+incompatible and the extension (&gopls&go) needs it to process the code in the project. It is a real error.

If you are sure that your code shouldn't depend on it, please remove the reference to it from your go code and go.mod file, and reload the window.
