As a workaround I created symlinks

$> ln -s 611f9bf-1718441199/LICENSSE LICENSE
$> ln -s 611f9bf-1718441199/bin bin
$> ln -s 611f9bf-1718441199/extensions extensions

$> ln -s 611f9bf-1718441199/product.json product.json
$> code .

This started vs code. There was a new warning box when I opened the second instance of vscode
