I’ve been experiencing an issue with Visual Studio Code where it won’t open at all. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling it several times, but there are no changes. I’m using [your operating system].

Steps I’ve taken:

1.  Uninstalled VS Code.
2.  Deleted any remaining VS Code folders.
3.  Restarted my computer.
4.  Reinstalled VS Code.

Despite these steps, when I try to open VS Code, nothing happens. There are no error messages or any indications of what might be wrong.

  1. Originally I found https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/81970, but it doesn’t mention a solution. I have it where the pid of the process constantly changes.

    Then I found https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/219893, which worked for me.

    The solution was to rename the installed Visual Code and download version 1.90.

  2. this worked for me:
    uninstall the currrent installation
    go the link to download v1.90 https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_90
    Install and update the setting.json: "update.mode": "none" in File > Preferences > Settings

    the bad is that I lost all my settings
