Upgrading VS Code breaks when malwarebytes is running

[gmariani405]

VS Code has built-in upgrades, and often will automatically try to upgrade when available after it closes. Except that Malwarebytes will silently break the upgrade and break the install process. Which means it uninstalls VS code and I have to manually reinstall it with zero notices or messages from Malwarebytes. But If i disable Malwarebytes before the upgrade, it goes smoothly. Please fix this.

The zip is 67mb, so i can't upload it (the limit is 58.59mb). Do you have a different method you'd prefer me to send it?
