Depending on the system you are in, when you first try to connect, a vscode-server will be set up and configured on your server.
In linux that can be in /Home/<user>/.vscode-server
If you are on windows, check what that is.
The first solution is to try the extension command: Remote-SSH: kill VS Code Server on Host
Open the command pallet (CTRL + SHIFT + P or COMMAND + SHIFT + P (mac) ).
And type Remote kill :
Then try to connect again! (That will kill the server on the host! Which will make it start again on the next try)
If that doesn't work, and things are still failing:
Delete, rm
Then a good solution that can work is: to connect to your server through terminal (vscode terminal, gnome-terminal, whatever). Then go and remove /Home/<user>/.vscode-server
Try to connect after that. At the attempt the server will be re-installed completely anew, chances are it will work. (I did that and it worked for me, so whatever that was going wrong on the vscode-server: just start all over)
But again: you will lose things, config, meta data, etc. (because you start anew).
Update:
As stated by @natevw in the comments:
I found that removing only the .vscode-server/bin subfolder helped straighten things out and afaict kept my data/settings.
Removing only vscode-server/bin seems to work well, and the config, metadata, etc. remains untouched.

I met the same problem. After I did these steps, it works:
on the remote server:
rm -rf ~/.vscode-server
rm -rf ~/.vscode
On the local VS code:
reinstall remote-ssh
In case all the above fails, here's how I fixed my issue.
First, I was able to SSH into my remote server (Ubuntu 22.04, Raspberry Pi 4, arm64) using a simple bash terminal. So I logged in using my terminal (macOS), and I went to
cd $HOME/.vscode-server/bin/WHATEVER-HASH-YOU-HAVE/
In this directory, there is a file named server.sh. I tried running this script, and I got the following error:
./node: error while loading shared libraries: libatomic.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
The issue was clear: there was a missing shared library on my system. Either Node.js now requires that or the new version of the SSH-Remote extension; I don't know. I did not spent the time to dig into those specifics.
But to fix that, I simply did:
sudo apt-get install libatomic1
That installed the missing shared library.
After that, I delete $HOME/.vscode-server:
rm -rf $HOME/.vscode-server
and tried again connecting using VSCode. It worked!
Hope this can help someone like me, for whom all other options failed.
Issue: while trying to ssh connect to Linux(remote machine) using vscode.
Solution: remove/delete the bin folder inside .vscode-server and then reconnect to the remote machine
In remote server:
remote_name:~$ rm -rf ~/.vscode-server/bin
*reconnect to remote machine*
I had faced this issue when I tried to connect to a Linux server from a windows laptop.
It was using the wrong fingerprint.
It worked for me after removing the line related to that server from $HOME/.ssh/known_hosts
To add what @cagriyonca mentioned, delete the ip that is in the file located in Windows in:
C:\Users\<YourUsername>\.ssh\known_hosts
This worked for me
I had previously tried to get vs code working on the remote machine.
I deleted both the home/.vscode-server AND the .vscode directories. These dirs were NOT deleted by uninstalling vs code on the remote machine
This also might help. I set the debug level by adding "logLevel DEBUG3" on the .ssh config file in VSCode
The logs are were very hard for me to find and are not named as the terminal output says they are (long hex string .log). I finally found it them in C:\Users<user>\AppData\Roaming\Code\logs they can be found by using command Developer:Open logs folder. There you will find subfolders named windowx. Under the window where the error occurred (you just have to look in by time) find exthot/output_logging_xxxxx/remote - ssh.log.
Here is an alternative for Remote SSH, pls check my answer at: https://stackoverflow.com/a/68046111/13089935
TLDR:
We can use a web-based VS Code that is installed on the server directly.
