$downloadUrl = "https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=623230"

# What to name the file and where to put it
$installerFile = "vscode-install.exe"
$installerPath = (Join-Path $env:TEMP $installerFile)

# I'm using /silent, use /verysilent for no UI

# Install with the context menu, file association, and add to path options (and don't run code after install: 
$installerArguments = "/silent /mergetasks='!runcode,addcontextmenufiles,addcontextmenufolders,associatewithfiles,addtopath'"

#Install with default options, and don't run code after install.
#$installerArguments = "/silent /mergetasks='!runcode'"

Thanks for the /mergetasks. I came up with a more robust installer tho:

What switch enables installation in portable mode?
