My firewall, the default firewalld, prevents my Visual Studio Code from installing new extensions. The VS Code installation in question are the official Microsoft binaries, the package being visual-studio-code-bin from AUR. How can I allow only VS Code to install, without allowing other apps.
Are you sure it is the firewall? Firewalld is only blocking inbound connections.
I disabled firewalld using systemctl
$ sudo systemctl stop firewalld
and my extensions did download. But I will try again with my firewall switched on and let you know.
I just checked and it worked, not sure why it did not work last time, but thanks for the help. But, the firewall was probably not the cause.
