The following pop up window is appearing repeatedly after a recent Manjaro update:
I am working with VSCode and whenever I click on different tabs of the app, this pop up shows up, which is surprising. Anyone knows what is happening and how to fix this issue?
Thank you in advance!
I’m only guessing, but could this be related to a plugin that has been installed in your VSCode?
If not, do you have a Samsung monitor?
If I understand the message correctly, the software asks you if you want to send a snapshot of your screen to “org.chromium.Chromium”. That could also be some kind of a bug report feature, but seems odd.
You could try to remove the tick mark at the bottom left of the window - maybe that makes the message disappear for good.
One more guess: it could be a conflict between key shortcuts. But you say you “click” on the tab, which makes this unlikely.

I would be surprised too 
Technically vscode is a browser built on top of chromium.
I have no idea why it is asking which part of the screen you want to share - but I am guessing it has something to with code with me feature - perhaps co-pilot - I don’t know really - just sharing my immediate thoughts.
Thank you all for the replies. I unchecked the checkbox at the bottom of the pop up, but it keeps showing. I don’t know how to further debug this issue, it is very annoying.
I’ve updated to VSCode 1.124 and the the pop up is gone.

There is multiple sources from where you can get it and checking your version should always be the first item.
