Visual Studio Code fails to start on Windows 7

Viewed 36

I installed Visual Studio Code 32 bit version (1.71.1) on a Windows 7 machine. I checked the box that said to launch it after I click Finish. The "wait" mouse cursor showed for a second or two, then nothing.

I tried double clicking the desktop icon with the same results. No error message. Not indication that it attempted to start. I did change the desktop icon to "Run as administrator" and that got me the prompt to allow changes to the system, but again, nothing comes up.

Any idea of what is going on? Is there a specific .NET version I need to have?
