When I have tried to connect to localhost and it was displayed the message about

"mssql:Error 2: A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server.The server was not found or was not accessible.Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections.(provider:Named Pipes Provider,error 40-Could not open a connection to SQL Server)".

How can I fix it?

I have tried to follow the solution technique given by "Why am I getting "Cannot Connect to Server - A network-related or instance-specific error"?" but i can't find the location of vscode mssql extension configuration tool and SQL Server Configuration Manager?

You may be changed your computer name. if you changed your computer name then back to set initial name of computer. Then restart your Sql Server(MSSQLSERVER)service.
