It's generally not a good idea to run vscode with root privilege. Is there any way to bypass that?

If VSCode is installed as a system, you need to run VSCode as an administrator to use the extension normally.
If you install VSCode as user, you do not need to run as an administrator.

Then what about Linux? Normally one would install with default package manager, and that would amount to the system version in Windows.
