Beginning with VS Code 1.78.1 accessing any UNC path (those that begin with \\) on Windows is blocked to mitigate a security risk that is further explained in this Security Advisory.

Please refer to https://aka.ms/vscode-windows-unc for more information how to make your specific UNC path work again.
