Description

Is there an existing issue for this bug?
  • I have searched the existing open issues and found none that apply.
  • If I find any issue of interest that is related or closed, I will included a link to it in this issue.
Required Troubleshooting Steps
  • I have read and performed the troubleshooting steps
  • I have tried both values of the remote.SSH.useLocalServer setting
  • My issue was not covered in the Tips and Tricks linked from the Troubleshooting Wiki.
  • I will include a complete copy of my Remote - SSH logs by running Remote-SSH: Show Log in the command palette or from View > Output in the menu bar
[Optional] Diagnose with Copilot

I asked @remote-ssh but it did not help

In step 2 of the troubleshooting wiki, what was the result of running the generated SSH command verbatim outside of VS Code?

I did not try step 2 of the troubleshooting steps

Expected Behavior

The extension should download the 64-bit CLI for Windows using a URL similar to:
https://update.code.visualstudio.com/commit:19e0f9e681ecb8e5c09d8784acaa601316ca4571/cli-win32-x64/stable

Actual Behavior

The extension tries to download from a URL similar to:
https://update.code.visualstudio.com/commit:19e0f9e681ecb8e5c09d8784acaa601316ca4571/cli-win32-/stable

Steps To Reproduce

Steps to Reproduce:

Attempt to connect to a remote Windows machine configured in my SSH config.
Observe the Remote - SSH extension log.
The log shows the extension trying to download the VS Code Server from a URL that is missing the -x64 identifier for the Windows 64-bit CLI.

Anything else?

Research direction

Start from the Remote-SSH log, especially the generated cli-win32- artifact and the resulting update.code.visualstudio.com URL. Trace where the Windows server or CLI download artifact is assembled; done means the URL includes the required -x64 suffix and the VS Code Server download succeeds.
