No response

Expected Behavior

I expect that if I log on to a remote server through a user who has root privileges, then being under it I can read or write system files through vscode explorer

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Log in to a remote server through a user who has root privileges.
  2. Open the folder with system files.
  3. Click on the file with the mouse.

Remote-SSH Log

The Remote-SSH Log contains information only about a successful connection.

Anything else?

After logging on to the server, it is possible to switch to root using sudo su in the terminal, but explorer shows (FileSystemError): An unknown error occurred. Please consult the log for more details.
