Google Chrome not redirecting to VScode after authorizing with Github

Question

The application “Google Chrome” does not have permission to open “vscode://vscode.github-authentication/did-authenticate?windowid=3&code=xxxxxxxxx&state=xxxxx-xxx-xx-xx-xx.”

macOS Catalina 10.15.7

Tried copy pasting the code in the address bar, did not work. Also tried with "Github Pull Requests and Issues" installed on VScode, still did not work.

Answer 1

Make sure your VSCode application is not placed on ~/Downloads or ~/Documents folder. Move it to /Applications directory.
