### {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %} Insiders
23+
24+
{% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %} Insiders is the most frequent release of {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %}. It has all the latest features and bug fixes, but may also occasionally contain new issues that result in a broken build.
25+
26+
If you are using an Insiders build and notice broken behavior, we recommend switching to {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %} Stable and trying again.
27+
28+
On the desktop version of {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %}, you can switch to Stable by closing the {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %} Insiders application, opening the {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %} Stable application, and re-opening your codespace.
29+
30+
On the web version of {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %}, you can click {% octicon "gear" aria-label="The manage icon" %} in the bottom left of the editor and select **Switch to Stable Version...**. If the web version doesn't load or the {% octicon "gear" aria-label="The manage icon" %} icon isn't available, you can force switching to {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %} Stable by appending `?vscodeChannel=stable` to your codespace URL and loading the codespace at that URL.
31+
32+
If the problem isn't fixed in {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %} Stable, please follow the above troubleshooting instructions.

If you encounter issues using codespaces in a browser that is not Chromium-based, try switching to a Chromium-based browser, or check for known issues with your browser in the `microsoft/vscode` repository by searching for issues labeled with the name of your browser, such as [`firefox`](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3Afirefox) or [`safari`](https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3Asafari).
