How do I update Visual Studio Code to use nodejs 10.xx?

How do I update Visual Studio Code to use nodejs 10.xx?
I installed NodeJS 10 but vscode still references v. 8
The reason I'm getting into this, is because my breakpoints are not working in .js files that node executes
I get "unverified breakpoint"
So - I'm grasping for solutions in the dark here
My breakpoints were working just last week - so I dont know if some vs code update suddenly broke this functionality

i believe node and everything else you see on the about screen are packaged into the exe. probably possible to use external stuff or run vscode from source/compiled but it is possible that with so many dependencies it could just break

VS Code is based on Electron and Electron ships with its own built-in version of node.js. You cannot change this. However, when running node.js programs inside VS Code, the user installed version of node.js is used.
 
BTW, there is now a new VS Code 1.28.2 with these fixes: https://github.com/Microsoft/v ... d%3D1
