Hi! Thanks for attempting to open an issue. Unfortunately, your title wasn't changed from the original template which makes it very hard for us to track and triage. You are welcome to fix up the title and try again with a new issue.

I have had this with all versions I've tried (most recently: 0.5.2661.0). Visual studio launches and brings up the file "profiles.json".

@Marc-B-Reynolds That's by design, it'll open in whatever program is your default .json editor. If you've installed VS, then it'll automatically configure itself as the default json editor.
