I have the same issue. VSCode has some issue with .mjs files.

Example 1: If I try to open a Python project, VSCode can open it, but If I create a Next JS project what includes 2 pcs .mjs files (next.config.mjs and postcss.config.mjs) and I try to open the folder from the menu (File>Open Folder), VSCode just quit. If I delete these 2 files temporarily, VSCode can open the folder.
There is 2 ways to open this folder. 1. From the terminal, I can use "code ." command and it opens in VSCode or 2. If I opened this folder earlier I can reopen it from the "File>Open recent>Foldername"

Example 2: If the folder is already open and I click the "File>Open Workplace from File..." button, VSCode quit again. (This not happen if I delete the .mjs files.

Example 3: If I delete a .mjs file and I try to restore it with Ctrl+Z. VSCode just quit again.

It sounds like the product is crashing in both cases.
Could you two create crash reports following the Wiki instructions?

@Sanzi87 if you can share a minimal repro (folder with problematic .mjs file) to demonstrate the issue it would be helpful for us to debug the issue further.

@Sanzi87 if you can share a minimal repro (folder with problematic .mjs file) to demonstrate the issue it would be helpful for us to debug the issue further.

The simplest way to reproduce the error is to create a new folder, which you then open in VS Code. After that, create a new Next JS 14 project in the VS Code terminal by using the command: "npx create-next-app ." Then, wait for the project to be set up. The .mjs files will be in the project directory. If you try to open the project from the file menu, VS Code exits.

Of course I can share these original files from a Next JS project too. Just uncompress the zip file, open the VS Code and select File>Open Folder and select the unzipped map. (My OS is Ubuntu 24.04.)

There is a bug in VS Code with commenting in .mjs files. If you create a new folder, open it in VS Code, create a something.mjs file, and just write a comment line, for example: "/* something */", then save it, VS Code will exit.
