MacOS: Trouble quitting VS Code (stable + insider)

[rojadesign]

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes

Type: Performance Issue

This is a regression of #172967.

• VS Code Stable: 1.82.0 (latest)
• VS Code Insider: 1.83.0-insider (latest)
• OS Version: MacOS Ventura 13.5.2
• Macbook Pro M1 2021

VS Code has trouble quitting with the cmd+Q shortcut on macOS. When I use cmd+Q or quit it by using the menu, VS Code hangs and remains open for some time. I can tell that VS Code is open by the indicator dot under its icon in the dock. Also, after quitting, I can open VS Code again before it quits completely - then it will kill both instances, of course. But all of that is described in #172967 thoroughly.

Steps to reproduce:

• Open VS Code on macOS
• use cmd+Q to quit VS Code
• Notice that the "Code" title in the macOS menubar flashes
• Notice the dot under VS Code's icon in the dock and that VS Code remains open

Only solution for now is to disable telemetry as suggested in #172967 (comment).

@jungaretti @klaussner FYI, would be interesting if you can reproduce this.

I could reproduce the issue with 1.83.0-insider. 👍

Yes, I'm able to reproduce this consistently on 1.83.0-insider

This feels more pervasive than #172967. That one was tricky to reproduce. This issue happnes every time I Cmd+Q to quit VS Code.
