Issue launching extension ("spawn EINVAL")

[b-rhodes]

Describe the bug
Whenever I open VSCode, I get a little panel popping up saying "Help panel unavailable", and then when I look at the extension runtime status, it has:

Uncaught Errors (1)

spawn EINVAL

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open VSCode
2. Click on 'extensions'
3. Scroll down to 'R'
4. Click on 'FEATURES' tab
5. Click on 'Runtime Status'

Can you fix this issue by yourself? (We appreciate the help)

I found some error in the extension host output:

still haven't managed to find a fix for this, so I've just been putting up with it or swapping to Positron when I desperately need the features.
