I use the VSCode SSH extension to remote into my desktop computer. I had to re-install my local copy of VSCode on my Windows machine last week. Since then, I've been repeatedly getting the following prompt. It seems to appear whenever my terminal outputs a file name or URL:

You'll need a new app to open this vscode-remote link vscode-remote link warning

I can't figure out how to prevent this dialog from appearing, or how to associate VSCode as being the default application to handle vscode-remote links. I'm not sure if there is some setting in VSCode that is causing this dialog to be launched, or how these URLs should be handled.

I can't comment because of low reputation score, so I'll post my answer to user598549 here:

You can set openAnalyzer: false in your webpack config. It's in module.exports under plugins, you add openAnalyzer: false in new webpackBundleAnalyzer.BundleAnalyzerPlugin({ HERE }).

I found that the underlying cause of the pop-up was use of the webpack-bundle-analyzer node package, which was trying to get my browser to open a generated HTML file. I was able to turn this off by providing it the openAnalyzer: false option to the module.

However, I am still not sure how I can create an association for vscode-remote links if I did want the reports to open.

  • Hi, if you can explain, I'd like to know more about this solution. How do you set `openAnalyser: false`? Thanks – user598549 Apr 22 '21 at 11:34
