VS Code Update hangs forever/fails #61330

Closed
@neloe

Description

@neloe
  • VSCode Version: 1.28.0 (and several previous versions) (user centric installation)
  • OS Version: Windows 10 (1803)

Visual studio code fails to update every time, and is unable to be run until it is reinstalled. When it goes to update, I get the following error: "There was an error deleting a directory: /bin": The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

The next dialog box told me to create a new issue with this log attached.

vscode-inno-updater-1539961002.log

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Wait for update to come out
  2. Restart VS Code and update

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes/No

Happens with uninstalled/reinstalled VS Code
