visual studio – How do you redirect a default .vscode file path?

On every Startup, Visual Studio creates a .vscode folder containing the extension folder, cli folder, etc. The folder is created in an inconvenient spot on my PC, and every time I move it to a new location or delete the folder, another .vscode folder takes its original place when I boot up Visual Studio again.

I’m wondering how to have the .vscode folder be created in a different folder rather than the folder it is currently being created in. Simply, I want to change where the output goes to.

Its current location is in my Windows User Profile Folder.

I tried uninstalling Visual Studio, and redirecting the program’s file paths upon installation to a folder separate from everything else. No change with the .vscode location. I looked through the studio’s settings and added or changed other file related settings. Again, no change. I looked around online, but there seems to be not many other problems that were similar to mine. I could be wrong though.
