How to add Open Folder in Visual Studio Code?

It is quite convenient to have a Open Folder in Visual Studio Code in the Popup Context Menu
































we can simply right click the selected folder and click on it, then the visual studio code will be launch and project will be loade.

here is the link to show you how to do so

I copied the code from the below link in case the author remove the this blog content
(you will have to create a reg file and save it, then click on the reg file, it will automatically install and update)

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
; Open files
 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\Open with VS Code]
    @="Edit with VS Code"
    "Icon"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft VS Code\\Code.exe,0"
    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\Open with VS Code\command]
    @="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft VS Code\\Code.exe\" \"%1\""
    ; This will make it appear when you right click ON a folder
    ; The "Icon" line can be removed if you don't want the icon to appear
    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\vscode]
    @="Open Folder as VS Code Project"
    "Icon"="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft VS Code\\Code.exe\",0"
    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\vscode\command]
    @="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft VS Code\\Code.exe\" \"%1\""
    ; This will make it appear when you right click INSIDE a folder
    ; The "Icon" line can be removed if you don't want the icon to appear
    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\vscode]
    @="Open Folder as VS Code Project"
    "Icon"="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft VS Code\\Code.exe\",0"
    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\vscode\command]
    @="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft VS Code\\Code.exe\" \"%V\""
