Thanks for creating this issue! It looks like you may be using an old version of VS Code, the latest stable release is 1.100.2. Please try upgrading to the latest version and checking whether this issue remains.

Happy Coding!

I updated my VS Code to 1.100.2.
The error "Could not load vsce-sign module" disappeared but I still have some:

Code - OSS 1.100.0

This does not seems to be the official VS Code version. Therefore, I would suggest to file the issue against the distribution from where you installed.
