Had the same issue. Opening VSCode as admin allows to update though.
I had this exact same error, but if you right click -> run as administrator -> and then check for updates… mine finished the updates that way.

thanks a lot
Exact same error here but my path was «C:UsersXXXAppDataLocalProgramsMicrosoft VS Code.NpackdStop.bat»
I had this exact same error, but if you right click -> run as administrator -> and then check for updates… mine finished the updates that way.
Just a minor thing. The user must close all VSCode before launching a new VSCode as administrator.
Running icacls "%LOCALAPPDATA%ProgramsMicrosoft VS Code" /grant "%USERDOMAIN%%USERNAME%":F /T from an admin command prompt is another workaround. See #147408.

Steps to Reproduce:
- Install VSCode update when available
- Observe that update fails
Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: N/A as Code is closed during updates
When installing an update the updater will sit on the intermediate progress bar for several minutes, then shows the following error message
Check file handles with a tool like Process Hacker 2 (Process Explorer should also work) shows that the handle is open by System, closing it is impossible. The machine must be restarted and the full setup must be rerun without opening Code beforehand. Disabling AV (Defender in this case) makes no difference.

VSCode updates fail with «Failed to create file handle» on Code.exe about vscode HOT 7 CLOSED
Comments (7)

I am hitting the same error however the locked file is C:UserspiotrAppDataLocalProgramsMicrosoft VS CodepoliciesCode.admx
The bot’s suggestion above is not good because this is happening during the upgrade process. Autoupgrade fails so we can’t get from 1.67.0 to 1.67.2. Any suggestion for a fix?
Montbra commented on January 12, 2023
Try to run VS Code as admin. It worked here.
heaths commented on January 12, 2023
I’m upgrading from the previous version to the latest version and got access denied on bootstrap-amd.js. There are similar bugs with workarounds like setting ACLs, but didn’t previous work for me. Before the last failed upgrade, I deleted the application directory and installed fresh (leaving my user settings/cache directory in a separate directory already) and got this again, so it seems something is wrong with the installer.
Per comment above, running as admin was never necessary when per-user install support was added and, if unnecessary, not recommended.

Same issues for me with moving to 1.68 from the previous. Running as admin did the trick for me but was getting file handle error or file missing for the ADMX policy file in my profile. Even after trying to close down every application running in the background including Teams, Office products, OneDrive, etc.
