Preventing me from finishing up my projects. I am using Linux on VirsualBox. Is there an actual way I can fix this problem?

Some things to try:

  • Disable all your extensions. There are some extensions which might not play nicely with VirtualBox
  • Disable settings sync
  • Do a complete reinstall VSCode

If these fail, I would take some steps to verify that it is in fact VSCode that is causing your workspace to freeze.
