Visual Studio Code supports a [Portable mode](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/portable). This mode enables all data created and maintained by VS Code to live near itself, so it can be moved around across environments.

Follow the instructions provided by Microsoft on https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/portable. When unzipping Visual Studio Code make sure that target location is `course_distribution\visual studio code`.
