title: The process tried to write to a nonexistent pipe
body: <p>I am trying to connect to my schools virtual server through vscode. I have configured the config file with the proper information. Occasionally I can connect to the server using PuTTY but vscode always gives me issues from &quot;Architecture not being supported&quot; to &quot;resource being temporarily unavailable&quot;. I have tried uninstalling VScode and reinstalling, uninstalling OpenSSH and reinstalling and connecting through SSH on cmd. I would appreciate some assistance with any of this. Thanks!</p>
