After the latest update, there are a bunch of issues on vscode's github about this. Apprarently related to anti-virus software. See https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/94858#issuecomment-611937137 and https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/94807 for fixes.

The AV software, particularly QuickHeal", flags the extensionHost file as a false positive. See if it has been quarantined by your AV software. If possible, add that file to the AV exclusion list. You may have to re-install vscode after doing so.
