visual studio code auto closes when opening

[Osderda]

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes

• VS Code Version: 1.89.1 and other ver.

• OS Version: Win10 22H2 19045

  After the last update this month, vsCode automatically closes when opening it. I tried many methods such as reinstalling, installing other versions, deleting the plugin folder, turning off other software running in the background, and I got no results. When it opens, the vscode screen appears and then closes immediately. When I looked at the task manager, I saw that the crash handler was running.

Same thing happening to me on Ubuntu 22.04.

Same thing happens on windows 10. My vscode opens for a few seconds, then closes

on inspecting the logs the closest thing to an error is this:

sharedprocess.log
(same thing repeats from above)

any fix so far?

[Jkimishere]

I encountered a similar issue and was able to resolve it by creating a new directory in a different location. In my specific case, I had a Jupyter notebook file open when VSCode closes. Switching to a new directory (Which closes the Jupyter notebook) seemed to address the problem. I am not sure if this issue is directly related to the Jupyter notebook, but at least the issue is fixed ¯_(ツ)_/¯

When I started it with the console window, I saw that it kept a log like this and closed itself. "Failed to create null handle: The system cannot find the specified file." I not sure exactly what you're looking for.

[Osderda]

Oh omg. The system crashed because it couldn't find the driver. Solution: Start cmd administrator and paste these two codes in order and try opening VSCode again. 1) sc create null binPath= C:\Windows\System32\drivers\null.sys type= kernel start= auto error= normal OUT> [SC] CreateService SUCCESS

2) sc start null OUT> SERVICE_NAME: null TYPE : 1 KERNEL_DRIVER STATE : 4 RUNNING (STOPPABLE, NOT_PAUSABLE, IGNORES_SHUTDOWN) WIN32_EXIT_CODE : 0 (0x0) SERVICE_EXIT_CODE : 0 (0x0) CHECKPOINT : 0x0 WAIT_HINT : 0x0 PID : 0 FLAGS :
