Remove the extra steps when installing updates to VS Code #236569

Description

Currently, updating Visual Studio code involves the following steps:

  1. Click the cog.
  2. Click the "Install Update" button.
  3. Enter admin credentials.
  4. Wait a few seconds.
  5. Click the cog.
  6. Click the "Update Now" button.
  7. Wait for the update to install.

I would like this to be simplified to the following steps:

  1. Click the cog.
  2. Click the "Install Update" button.
  3. Enter admin credentials.
  4. Wait for update to install.

The extra couple of clicks are a minor annoyance that adds to all the other minor annoyances throughout the day, which lead to eventual subsurface rage that has no time or space to dissipate over the short weekends, surrounded by screaming kids, before returning to the fray again on Monday.
