Figured it out, had to add plantuml jar to the system path

I'm having this same issue but preview still isn't working for me. I have Graphiz and Java installed and that folder for plantuml on my path. Was there anything else you did?

you need the path including the jar file. not just the folder

@AndresCKF Can you elaborate, i.e. describe precisely what you added to the system path?

You can also use Smetana (the internal Java port of GraphViz/Dot embedded in PlantUML sources) instead of the regular dot process

Update the settings.json like below

"plantuml.jarArgs": [
        "-Playout=smetana"
    ],
