I had the same error, then, I tried to resolve that by updating and reinstalling VS Code, and by deleting the 000unins.exe file in the destination folder. But the error wasn't resolved. Finally, I resolved that with the following ways:

1. When I run VS Code as administrator the error didn't occured.

2. I uninstalled VS Code and downloaded VS Code ZIP file instead of the installer and unzipped it in my AppData\Local\Programs folder. It's been working fine and the error hasn't occured.
