I also had the same issue when installing VS code. It seems that it is a general issue happening for any software installation when any of files are quarantined by anti virus programs running during the installation. (Reference: https://forum.greenheartgames.com/t/move-file-failed-code-2-during-installation/6174 https://www.asap-utilities.com/faq-questions-answers-detail.php?m=334)

In my case, I just disabled the antivirus program temporarily during the installation and the issue get resolved during my next attempt of VS code installation.
