Notes

Looking at the vs_code_welcome_page.ts, there is a line which should be mac-only which opens a folder by executing the command workbench.action.files.openFileFolder.

When the link gets called, the commandService is used. First, it uses the id workbench.action.files.openFileFolder to look up the command in the CommandsRegistry. If the command isn't found, it rejects the promise. The question is: why isn't it found?

We need to find the list of commands and see what's there 🤔

From what I can tell, actions are "registered" like registerAction2(KeybindingsReferenceAction);

Funny enough, I can't tell how the OpenFileFolderAction gets registered 🤔
Here is the code upstream.

Okay I found this issue. If you look here I found the issue I believe! If you look here, that action only), they only use the OpenFileFolderAction on mac desktop (not web). So we need to change the action in the Welcome Page to use the OpenFolder and it should work.

This change happened on April 21 in the 1.56.2 release: microsoft/vscode@141ecfb#diff-c294b7c700c8aaaac2bce37dd95450e3ab232e0e52fcc181b7c94780f01aa17a
