When a file opened in Visual Studio Code, it contains a link, and it is possible to follow the link with Ctrl + click.
Usually the link is opened with the default browser, but for the past few weeks the link have been downloaded and displayed in Visual Studio Code.
Is there a way to get the default behavior back?
I use Visual Studio Code on Kubuntu.
This alternative way helped me:)
Go to Google Chrome → Settings → Default browser → Set Google Chrome as default browser.
The action needed to fix this will vary based on file type that has the link.
For Markdown files try the following:
In Visual Studio Code: menu File → Preferences → Settings → search for 'link' → under Extensions, find Markdown → under "Markdown, Links:Open Location", select the gear icon and click "Reset Settings".
If not Markdown, explore other categories and find similar settings based on the installed extensions.
