Verified Solution[microsoft/vscode] The process crash suddenly
Sponsored Content
### ROOT CAUSE
The crash is likely due to an incompatibility between the VS Code version (1.109.5) and the macOS M1 architecture, exacerbated by resource constraints or a specific extension (version 0.37.9). The Metal graphics driver version (26.2) may not fully support VS Code's GPU acceleration, causing instability under certain conditions.
### CODE FIX
1. **Update VS Code**: Ensure you're using the latest stable version (check [VS Code releases](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/releases)).
2. **Disable Extensions**: Temporarily disable the extension `0.37.9` by renaming its folder in `~/.vscode/extensions/` to see if the crash stops.
3. **Use Safe Mode**: Launch VS Code with `code --disable-gpu` to disable GPU acceleration and test stability.
4. **Update macOS**: Ensure your macOS is up-to-date to resolve driver conflicts.
5. **Check for Known Issues**: Review [VS Code GitHub issues](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues) for M1-specific bugs.
If the issue persists, consider downgrading VS Code or reporting the crash details (e.g., console logs) to the VS Code team.
