code.exe blocked after choosing wrong option in update via integrated terminal

I opened VSCode for the first time in a while, and when I went to use the integrated terminal there was some dialog about updating or allowing a publisher.

I was in a rush and wasn't sure what was going on, it was saying something about allowing a file from an "unknown publisher" and I believe I chose "always block" or something like that, and now I can't launch VSCode unless I do so through an elevated terminal. I get this pop up when trying to launch the app:

I wish I had more information I could give you but I just really didn't pay enough attention to the prompt. Nevertheless I've been searching for hours now and can't seem to fix this, pretty sure I blocked some low level file and have no way of locating it. Doesn't seem like there's any comprehensive list as to what's been blocked anywhere in Windows, I fear I may need to do a system restore to fix this.

Uninstalling and re-installing VSCode doesn't fix the problem, Any ideas?

UPDATE - Here's a screenshot of the certificate I accidentally blocked, removing it from the Untrusted Certificates > Certificates folder fixed the problem:

Solution 1:

Run certmgr.msc:

• Certificates that are trusted without prompting are under Trusted Publishers.
• Certificates that are immediately rejected are under Untrusted Certificates.

Although the first thing that's unusual is that you were seeing "Unknown Publisher", when Visual Studio Code executables normally are digitally signed by Microsoft. If reinstalling VSCode didn't help, something else is going wrong...
