I installed Visual Studio Code (VSCode) on Ubuntu and tried to set an image as the background, but I couldn't do it using any extension. I tried using the 'background-cover' extension v2.3.3, but it simply doesn't work. I also tried the Doki Theme, which changed the theme upon installation, but it didn't set the image background. After installing Doki Theme, if I try to change the theme, it doesn't allow me and instead directs me to a tab to change permissions with this command: 'sudo chown -R $(whoami) /snap/code/133/usr/share/code/resources/app/out/vs/workbench'. Although this command made some changes, I still have the same problem. I also tried using the command 'sudo chown -R $(whoami) /usr/share/code/resources/app/out/vs/workbench', but it says it can't find the folder. I don't think I need to use this command.
i tried sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade, i reinstalled doki and change permissions on the image file but doesent work
If you installed vscode with snap, there is an issue with Linux-Snap-VSCode.
Applications installed using snap are inherently read-only, to solve this try to install VSCode using deb or rpm.
