@elazarza I investigated this in the past and found it to be an issue in VSCode. I submitted microsoft/vscode#132785 but I think it was misunderstood or didn't get enough attention to be investigated fully. Unfortunately, there's nothing that can be done on our side for this.

Hi @atscott , thanks for the quick response.
Ok I guess we'll have to live with it then. I tried commenting on your submission to microsoft to gain attention but its locked of course.

thanks!
