VSCode EACCES: permission denied, unlink '/usr/local/bin/code' Fix | Visual Studio Code Microsoft

This is a video to help those have encountered this permissions issue when trying to install shell code command.

What is the shell code command? It helps you launch VScode quickly at your current file path directory.

Do let me know if you have other ways to resolve this issue.

I don't have this problem because my installation is local, download the file in the realase repository section, extra and run the file code by console that is inside bin directory, I use linux so I create the file vscode.desktop in the path and the vscode is adding in the menu sections of the system, for update I have a bash script for download, verify the file, extra and move the vscode in local directory for replace the old files
