How to prevent Visual Studio Code from opening an extra blank window?
When I run code . in a directory, Visual Studio Code opens two windows. The first is empty, the second shows directory I was in as expected.
I checked ~/.config/VSCode/Workspaces and there is only one in there for a different folder, so that can't be it.
I found a bug about this https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/128175 but that's apparently fixed in 2021, so that wouldn't be it either. My VSC version was 1.77.3 - after updating to 1.79.0 the issue persists.
How can I figure out why VS Code is opening two windows and stop it?
