VS Code was lost on shutdown with pending update. Issue # 52855Microsoft / vscode, Hacker News
    

             

        

          

Yesterday this happened to me. I started VSCode in the afternoon and used it for several hours. Then exited the application and shutdown my system. When I started my system today VSCode was uninstalled.

Windows Brave Browser

VSCode 1. 20200206

Installed in User space

Belows are all the entries from the “AppData Roaming Code logs 583592323 T 859721061 main.log “

It seems interesting that the logs show I had automatic updates disabled but did the download and started the updates. There was a folder created “AppData Local Programs Microsoft VS Code_” with the data time stamp that matches the log entry below where I can see the files for the update. There are several other folders under “AppData Local Programs Microsoft VS Code resources” folder and some of its subfolders (not all of them) that have an updated date time stamp that matches my shutdown time AND there are no files in this entire folder tree.

Maybe the bug is in the update code that fails to check or honor the “disable update setting” and downloads the update and uninstalls VSCode but then does check the setting and does not complete the install action.
