@bpasero yeah we’re working with Cylance as well. i’ve been working alongside our IT department and have managed to solve this issue by updating our security policy.

This may be a bit out of scope of vscode itself but the solution included adding 2 exclusions for security policies with memory protection enabled:

/Visual Studio Code.app/Contents/MacOS/Electron
/Visual Studio Code.app/Contents/Frameworks/Code Helper.app/Contents/MacOS/Code Helper

I think this will be enough information to help people with this issue but it’s quite obscure (mojave + cylance) so i wouldn’t dive deeper into it.
