Code-OSS 不会从终端命令“code-oss”打开文件夹或文件。

Question

A few days ago I installed Kali Linux. I'm trying to use Code-OSS instead of VSCode, since newest version of Kali doesn't have the libraries needed to install the normal one.

If I try to open a folder in Code-OSS from terminal using code-oss. or code. , it just opens Code on a new 'untitled-1' document, or opens the folder I was before closing Code-OSS. It doesn't open the folder I was in the terminal.

In these cases I need to open the folder I want through File > Open folder > search for folder and then open it.

The same just occurred with git commit or git commit --amend ; it opens a new document, not the one I want to open.

I spent sometime searching for a solution on documentation, stackoverflow, google but could not find anything.

Answer 1

I cannot find any way to resolve this problem on Code-oss. Apparently it happened just with me.

Surprisingly for me, I was able to install VSCode following this tutorial , and it apparently managed to ignore the lack of libraries of Kali Linux that I mentioned above.

I hope this solution prevent any person in the future to get stuck on this.

Answer 2

I had the same issue when I first installed Kali-linux on my VM. Pretty anoying.

Just intall vscode by running:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install code

It will unistall code-oss and install VsCode, and it works now.
