Description

Type: Bug

Hi,
Vscode was running fine without any issue but has started crashing now after 1-2 frequently. I open the app in my workspace, do nothing and still it crashes. Also, it is creating a process called "rg" which is consuming 50% of the cpu. When I ran in verbose I got the following error:
