Can open VS Code while it's being updated #120515

Description

@ijtan

Issue Type: Bug

I often have to restart vscode when things get stuck (not the issue).
I am encountering an issue where after I close and reopen vscode (without waiting a bit), vscode starts normally, and then, after a few seconds (by which I would have started working on the code again), the 'updating vscode window' comes up and forcibly recloses vscode.

This seems to be an issue with the auto-update which occurs when vsc is closed, which I don't mind. Yet I think it should check if VSCode was reopened before forcing it to close.

So in essence I end up:

  • close vsc
  • re-open vsc immediately to continue working
  • start working on the code which I restarted for
  • after few seconds, vsc forcibly shut by the update window
  • have to reopen vscode once again after the update
