Visual Studio Code. why are the window control buttons over the menu bar on the left side?

In vscode v1.71.2 the window.experimental.windowControlsOverlay.enabled setting has been disabled by default.


This bug was released in vscode v1.71. It may be related to using RTL languages. I would assume this will be fixed in a point release.

Try disabling this setting:

window.experimental.windowControlsOverlay.enabled

from [windows default close button location moved on its own when updating to v1.71.0][1]
