When I choose "Sync Settings: Download (repository -> user)" in VSCodium the restart fails.
The application is terminated but not started again.

In many cases (but not every time I tried) the following message dialog appears, a second or so before the application shuts down:

Because it appears so shortly, it was quite difficult to take this screenshot. But a well timed Alt+PrtSc did the job after several tries. 😅

I am using Arch Linux with the Xfce desktop installed, the version of Code that I am using is VSCodium version 1.77.3 (from AUR).
See: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vscodium

The exacutable path of VSCodium is called /usr/bin/codium, although a symlink /usr/bin/vscodium also exists (not sure if the problem is specific to VSCodium but when it is, I can imagine that this path matters when invoking a restart).


Thanks for making this great extension by the way!, especially because it has more/better options than Microsoft's default "Settings Sync" and I need this because of having different settings on different operating systems. (And it looks like the other extension "code-settings-sync" from "shanalikhan" is not really getting any development anymore.)
Feels also more reliable than relying on Microsoft's solution which is basically closed source as well (or at least on the server/cloud side).
