Hi All,
To be honest, i am a System Engineering guy and not a developer. Even i like to write PowerShell Scripts and use VSCode almost on a daily basis. I am still a Git Noob ??
I’ve had an old GitHub Repo where the only branch is still “master”. I wanted to change that and found this Guide.
To rename the branch locally i used the following command
git branch -m master main Then i pushed that branch to GitHub

Hi All, This week i was surprised with the following Error Message when Visual Studio Code, tried to update to the newest version.
So i've checked the Permissions
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Programs The User don't had "Change" Permissions on the Directory
I've pushed the Permissions to the Subdirectorys and Files below.
After that, the Upgrade or Installation of Visual Studio Code was flawless
Regards Andres
