 VSCode has a bug where it fills up the Windows Credentials Manager with credentials up to the point where no new credentials can be added.
 This leads to multiple issues, one of them for example that VSCode itself cannot store any more credentials there.
 You'll notice this when you have to sign in to your Microsoft or Github account in VSCode after each restart.
