Updates still applied despite policy setting #163418

madig · 2022-10-12T10:03:52Z

Type: Bug

Set update.mode = none (e.g. via group policy)
Still get the "1" badge on the settings icon in the lower left corner telling you about an update

The "Main" log after startup shows:

[2022-10-12 10:54:29.870] [main] [info] update#setState idle
[2022-10-12 10:54:30.677] [main] [info] Starting extension host with pid 17568 (fork() took 15 ms).
[2022-10-12 10:54:59.877] [main] [info] update#setState checking for updates

[2022-10-12 10:54:59.883] [main] [info] update#setState downloaded

Additionally disabling update.enableWindowsBackgroundUpdates instead makes an obnoxious notifcation pop up on every start/window reload.

Thanks for creating this issue! It looks like you may be using an old version of VS Code, the latest stable release is 1.72.1. Please try upgrading to the latest version and checking whether this issue remains.

Happy Coding!

joaomoreno · 2022-10-12T18:24:36Z

Set update.mode = none (e.g. via group policy)

How did you do this, exactly?

TreeBranches · 2022-10-17T11:55:44Z

@joaomoreno We obtained the VSCode ADML from the VSCode 1.72.2 ZIP file (policies folder) and roll out the GPO to all computers in our domain, which is how @madig gets the configuration.

Neither the Install Updates (1) badge nor the Update notification popup should be appearing when "Disable Updates" is set (as it shouldn't be checking for them in the first place), yet it continues to do so, despite the configuration applying (as seen in his config file).

joaomoreno · 2022-10-17T12:39:10Z

I can't reproduce. When I set it to Disable updates. this is how the setting appears in the settings editor:

Are you setting it at the user or machine level?

madig · 2022-10-17T14:19:49Z

I don't have the setting in my user's settings.json, if that's what you mean.

joaomoreno · 2022-10-17T14:40:33Z

Can you show me the settings editor focused on that setting? With the policy applied, that is.

My question was regarding the policy: whether it's set at the user or machine level.

TreeBranches · 2022-10-17T15:16:47Z

I can't reproduce. When I set it to Disable updates. this is how the setting appears in the settings editor:

Are you setting it at the user or machine level?

That is also how the setting appears on our editor (the "None" setting).

Policies are deployed as a computer settings, as we're using the System installer (MSI), and want it to apply for all users.

joaomoreno · 2022-10-17T15:26:42Z

Do you have the This setting is managed by your organization message?

madig · 2022-10-17T15:28:21Z

Yes:

joaomoreno · 2022-10-17T15:31:12Z

OK. If you see that, it means it's working. If you restart VS Code, does the Main log still show the same update service output?

ptdalen · 2022-10-24T18:20:55Z

We are having the same behavior. The only thing I can think of is that our enterprise installs vscode to D:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft VS Code\ We are running 1.71.0.

Here is a log output showing that vscode is checking for updates even though it's set to none

joaomoreno · 2022-10-25T07:58:11Z

@sandy081 Need your eyes here. Look at the screenshot above:

The settings editor shows that we're reading the policy correctly from Windows, since the settings editor shows that UI.
But the update service (main process) doesn't seem to read the same value at startup.

Do we maybe have a race condition?

sandy081 · 2022-10-25T08:36:46Z

Only possible scenario I can think of is following

If the native policy service is not initialising when it is asked to initialise

vscode/src/vs/platform/policy/node/nativePolicyService.ts

Line 21 in a803dc3

    
           protected async initializePolicies(policyDefinitions: IStringDictionary<PolicyDefinition>): Promise<void> {

Do you think if there is any caching involved while reading the policies?

Is it helpful to add log (debug) statement after initialising policies by the policy service?

TreeBranches · 2022-10-25T12:09:28Z

Either myself or @madig can provide any logs you require.

In case relevant, we also use the 64bit System Wide installer ~~(.MSI)~~ (.EXE) in our org as opposed to the User Install in AppData, but at its default install location C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code\Code.exe

joaomoreno · 2022-10-31T10:05:21Z

@TreeBranches We don't distribute an .MSI package ourselves. Can you clarify if that is really an .MSI or an .EXE?

TreeBranches · 2022-11-01T11:48:55Z

@TreeBranches We don't distribute an .MSI package ourselves. Can you clarify if that is really an .MSI or an .EXE?

@joaomoreno My mistake, it is the EXE provided in https://code.visualstudio.com/#alt-downloads - 64bit System Wide Installer.

Deployed with the following switches;

VSCodeSetup-x64-1.72.2.exe /LOADINF=VSCode.inf /VERYSILENT /NORESTART /RESTARTEXITCODE=0 /NOCLOSEAPPLICATIONS

VSCode.inf contains the following data;

joaomoreno · 2022-11-16T14:06:57Z

I've added trace logging to the NativePolicyService which should help us get more visibility on this.

@TreeBranches, @ptdalen, @madig Could you install VS Code Insiders tomorrow, then run Developer: Set Log Level..., set the logging level to Trace and open the Main log in the Output pane and show me whatever logs you might have related to NativePolicyService?

joaomoreno · 2022-12-09T10:29:10Z

@madig, @sandy081 has pushed a few more log statements here. Can you give this a try again on the latest insiders and send us the full logs? Thank you!

joaomoreno · 2022-12-14T12:01:18Z

Let us know, @madig. Also @TreeBranches, if you're still around! 🙏

@madig @TreeBranches We think we found the issue. The update.mode setting used to be called update.channel. We think you might still have a value for update.channel, is that true? If you remove that value, is the issue fixed?

madig · 2022-12-14T13:44:38Z

Where is that value stored? There's nothing in my settings.json.

SnowJuli · 2023-01-04T09:38:03Z

@joaomoreno @madig Any updates on this?

madig · 2023-01-04T10:54:58Z

(I don't know where the setting is, so I haven't checked further)

TreeBranches · 2023-01-04T11:08:29Z

Hi @joaomoreno . @madig is a user in our domain and so any logs submits by them will be the same as anything I would produce. I am keeping an eye on the thread though in case changes are made (either to VSCode or the ADMX file) and will contribute if required.

SnowJuli · 2023-01-04T12:20:15Z

(I don't know where the setting is, so I haven't checked further)

you can check the settings.json by calling it from the Command Palette (Strg + Shift + P -> Search for "Open Settings (JSON)")

SnowJuli · 2023-01-04T12:21:40Z

Side note for @joaomoreno

I tested it by using just a registry entry but this didnt work at all. It showed that it is managed by my organisation but it still auto updated.

madig · 2023-01-04T14:06:56Z

There is no update.* setting my my JSON config.

joaomoreno · 2023-01-17T13:50:12Z

Sorry for the delay here. @sandy081 and I found the issue! Many thanks for your patience. Fix will come in the next release.

fixes #163418

vscodenpa · 2023-01-26T20:20:49Z

This bug has been fixed in the latest release of VS Code Insiders!

@madig, you can help us out by commenting /verified if things are now working as expected.

If things still don't seem right, please ensure you're on version 07d6f5b of Insiders (today's or later - you can use Help: About in the command palette to check), and leave a comment letting us know what isn't working as expected.

Happy Coding!

vscodenpa · 2023-01-27T10:40:21Z

Friendly ping! Looks like this issue requires some further steps to be verified. Please provide us with the steps necessary to verify this issue.

SnowJuli · 2023-01-27T10:42:01Z

Not OP, but I would be glad to verify it on Monday, if Madig doesn't respond in Time.

madig · 2023-01-27T10:43:43Z

I now see

[info] update#ctor - updates are disabled by user preference

in the main log on startup. So I guess /verified.
