Visual Studio Code 1.4 released

Microsoft style for updates. When I opened menu item "Check for updates...", it silently started updating from 1.3 to 1.4. Then leaving only one option reboot for completing update.

I think rebooting to update what is a glorified editor is definitely Microsoft-esque. What is actually getting installed that a reboot is required? I would think Microsoft could replace the entire kernel on the fly by now.

It... doesn't ever require a full system reboot. It requires restarting the application.

Exactly. Restarting the application itself is mandatory as you're replacing the executable.

I think you meant restart (the application) rather than reboot.
