Hello,

Visual Studio Code Portable install the extensions in C:\Users\sdl96354\.vscode\extensions. I use a PC from my work and this folder has a restricted size. It it possible to use another folder?

Doesn't vscode-portable install extensions to a portable datafolder by default? Mine is at G:\VSCode Portable\Data\code\extensions and I saw it's also configured that way here in VSCodePortable.ini at line 4. I think changing the commandline argument should do the trick.
