I'm using VS Code and it keeps reminding me to update, but I don't know which update version for Linux I should download. I'm still relatively new to all this.
I've attached pictures with information of my current VS version and also the options VS gives me on the web. I hope that's enough to answer my question. I don't know what the differences are between '.deb', '.rpm', 'stable' and 'insiders' hence my doubt.
Thanks in advance.

It depends on the installation method and your linux.
- My first advice is to use the package manager of your linux distro if you installed VS Code this way.
- Ubuntu/Debian => .deb file
- Fedora/Red Hat/etc. => .rpm file
It would be helpful to provide more information about your system and/or installation method.

After Tobias' comment, I went in search of which Linux system I have and discoverd I have a Debian system.
Linux System Information (command: cat /etc/os-release)
Using that I downloaded Linux x64: Stable: .deb. After downloading this I checked the information about my Visual Studio code and it seems to have updated.
Thanks @Tobias for your help.
