I am getting the vscode error: "The editor could not be opened due to an unexpected error". How do I fix this?

Question

Basically I am making a discord bot on github codespaces (online vscode), and it was working for a while, but after I closed out of my tab, and re-opened it, it is giving me this error: This is the picture of the error.

I don't know what is causing this error. I tried creating a new codespace for the repo, but it still has the same issue. I created a new repository with a codespace to see if I got the same error. It again worked at first, but then came up with the same error. Can someone tell me what is happening, and how to fix it? The git tab (source control) also says No source control providers registered. Sometimes, the run button (looks like play button), doesn't show up. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Please provide enough code so others can better understand or reproduce the problem. — Сергей Кох, Nov 19 '22 at 04:55
it isn't an issue with the code, it is an issue with visual studio code on startup. — that_common_coder, Nov 19 '22 at 17:17

Use vscode client. Check if the file path exists. Follow this document.

I didn't created the file locally. I created a GitHub repo, and then opened a GitHub Codespace within that repo. – that_common_coder Nov 21 '22 at 02:46
