WinSCP opening a new "VS" and "Code" file with external editors.

So I just redownloaded winSCP for the first time in a while, and I remember this happening last time I used it too, where when I open a file using an external editor, I've tried using both Visual Studio Code and Sublime Text 3, they both open the file I intend to open, but they also open a blank "VS" and "Code" file that says it needs to be saved.

Can your post a screenshot of your external editor configuration?
How exactly do you open/edit the file in WinSCP?

Hello! I am not an author, but I have the same problem. The editor is reinstalled, all the default settings, no extensions are worth it.

@Marymiu: I'm glad that you have resolved it, but I cannot imagine how WinSCP reinstall can help. It's rather just a coincidence.
If the problem ever comes back, please let us know and we will try to find out the root cause.
