ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/root/.code-server/Backups/workspaces.json'

[wwbmmm]

• code-server version: v1.31.1-100
• OS Version: Ubuntu 18.10

Steps to Reproduce

1. use docker to start code-server, wait a while
2. and you will see this error:

ERROR SHARED stderr {"data":"Uncaught Exception:  Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/root/.code-server/Backups/workspaces.json'\n\nError: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/root/.code-server/Backups/workspaces.json'\n    at Timeout.eval [as _onTimeout] (eval at exports.requireModule (/usr/local/bin/code-server:468:27336), <anonymous

290:5)\n"}

I'm getting the very same error in the beginning. Later, when I navigate to the code-server's address in my browser, login with the generated password and mess around in vscode it suddenly crashes.
In order, I did the following actions:

• open terminal and execute go version then python3 -V
• created a new folder
• Hit File -> Open Folder and navigated to one of the newly created folders
• crash
