VSCode (CSS): Solution to achieve not shown effect when writing # using color list

Question

I just updated VSCode (version: 1.81.1 (general version)). Before this update, every time I entered "#" while writing CSS, the program would trigger a list of colors: first the colors used in my code, then suggestions for base colors. Now, the list doesn't appear unless I'm in a variable that needs to select a color, and it only works after I finish typing ":". I've put some screenshots to help understand the problem:

Some examples that have worked before: (https://i.stack.imgur.com/dMJLD.png) (https://i.stack.imgur.com/kIZDW.png)

For me, the previous way of working was very convenient and I am used to it. Do you guys know how I can get it back to how it was before?

Use the shortcut key Ctrl Shift X and install the "Color Highlight" extension.
