@EstherPerelman is the correct syntax for an external link accessed via the SSH Remote plugin something like vscode-remote://ssh-remote+remotehost/path/to/remote/directory? Been trying to nail down that syntax and haven't been able to, sounds like you might be using it...

@reynoldsalec , I'm working with WSL, this is the referrer I had for doing this: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/command-line#_opening-vs-code-with-urls

I found an issue which related to ssh urls - there are there suggestions that can help you: #656

Can you use a relative URL instead? Not all vscode-remote URIs can be easily hand-crafted.

Exactly what I was looking for @EstherPerelman, huge thanks!

@chrmarti in my case I can't use a relative url, will you fix this?
