title: Visual Studio Code can't be opened because "Apple cannot check it for malicious software"
body: <p>I have downloaded Visual Studio Code for the first time but I keep getting message below:</p>
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/JYhkw.png" alt="apple error message when clicking on VSC app" /></p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>&quot;Visual Studio Code&quot; can't be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software.</p>
  <p>This software needs to be updated. Contact the developer for more information.</p>

  <p>My MacBook is up to date, and I even updated the latest version of VSC on their website (September 2019 (version 1.39); there is none for October) but it still gave me the same message.</p>
  <p>Looking into their FAQ, I read about reinstalling VS Code. I did that but it still doesn't work.</p>
