Can't open VS Code on Kali Linux as super user or root

I installed VS Code on Kali Linux and when I tried opening it with the code command, this message would appear: > You are trying to start Visual Studio Code as a super user which isn't recommended. If this was intended, please specify an alternate user data directory using the --user-data-dir argument. I tried this command: sudo code --user-data-dir="~/.vscode-root" but that did not work either.
