Why is powershell opening notepad instead of vscode?
Running explorer . opens an explorer windows
However, running code . for vscode opens code.cmd with a bunch of args.
Can anyone explain why this is happenining? and a possible rememdy?

Have you tried restarting it?
Restarting the machine (first in safe mode) and then normal mode solved the issue.
Note: Default apps (still) associates the .cmd extension with notepad but this doesn't prevent expected behavior.
