I regret the confusion, and I want to fix that page.

Please understand that I have never been a Windows user, and I don't
pay attention to Microsoft's software products -- unless some special
circumstance makes it necessary, like fixing this page.  For the most
part I don't even recognize their names.

Once I understand this point clearly, I can fix the page.
I could not understand it from the message you sent,
because it assumed basic knowledge I don't have.

Is there a program whose name is just "Code"?  Or is the name "Code -
OSS"?  Either way, what a strange name!

What does that program do?  Who or what company releases it?  And how
does it differ from (and relate to) "Visual Studio Code"?
