    Hey AB21805,

    package the x64 installer into a .intunewin file with the tool "Microsoft Win32 Content Prep Tool"
    https://github.com/microsoft/Microsoft-Win32-Content-Prep-Tool

    and use this for the install command:
    VSCodeSetup-x64-1.57.1.exe /verysilent /norestart /mergetasks=!runcode /log="%temp%\VSCodeInstall.log"

    and this for the uninstall command:
    "C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code\unins000.exe" /verysilent /norestart

    The detection method should check for file exists:
    "C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code\Code.exe"

    best,
    Oliver
