This url always points to the latest Windows version in a zip file. Just extract contents into VSCodePortable/App/VSCode and done. The only issue would be figuring out how to check if an update is necessary.

Check the value for the key "version"?

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Microsoft/vscode/master/package.json

Not sure how long it takes between updates there and the Microsoft site, though.
