Noting I’m not the OP and @deepak1556’s earlier request to me was reasonably to open a separate issue (given I’m on Windows rather than the OP’s OSX), I’ll mention that I tracked my issues down, about those 4 months ago, to a Sync problem. That is, I got so far as establishing that turning on Sync Settings caused the freeze (both under VSC and Preview VSC). Since then, out of fear and a need to spend my time elsewhere, I’ve kept Sync Settings off.

So if anyone was highly motivated to try to reproduce a freeze with Sync Settings on, they’d be doing us all a great service. But, with respect to this sync issue, it would be reasonable to close the current issue on the grounds it’s encumbent on me to open a new one and try to reproduce the freeze under the latest version(s) of VSC.

Still (or again) crashes on BIg Sur 16’’ Macbook Pro.

When I start VSCode (1.6.1) from within Applicatiosn folder, it crashes after startup. If I start it from another folder, it runs - how comes?
