CMD+P 'Open in VSC' opens browser-based VS Code instead of local application
Resolved 💬 1 comment Opened Mar 13, 2026 by austinywang Closed Mar 13, 2026
Description
The behavior of CMD+P → Open in VSC has changed. It now opens the browser-based VS Code instead of the local VS Code application.
Expected behavior
As in previous versions, this action should open the local VS Code application with the current project directory.
Current behavior
It opens the browser-based VS Code, which is significantly less practical for development workflows.
Suggestion
- Restore the previous behavior of opening the local VS Code app, or
- Provide an option/setting to choose between local VS Code and browser-based VS Code
