Add Install-VSCode.ps1 script #716

Would definitely appreciate some feedback on the quality of this script! |

Uninstalled both the current and insiders vs code versions. Ran the script, worked like a charm. I'll try again and make sure the PSES ext is not installed too.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I usually don't bother specifying Mandatory=$false since that is the default. Other than that LGTM.
This change adds a new script that can be used to install Visual Studio Code and the PowerShell extension. The intent is for this script to be shipped to the PowerShell Gallery so that one can easily get the script and install VS Code in a single line of PowerShell.

Thanks guys! |

Although this worked initially, I tried uninstalling the PowerShell Extension before uninstalling VSCode, and this time got this error which left VSCode installed without the PowerShell Extension: |

Argh, yeah, VS Code has this weird thing where they need to update their internal extension metadata by restarting the editor. If you uninstall the extension and close the editor then try to reinstall the extension via command line, VS Code throws up. Not sure if there's a way around that yet, but I'll see what I can figure out. Thanks for letting me know! |

Ah that was my bad then as I didn't restart code before uninstalling during the test.
