Regarding "User setup for Windows" what should I do after download? [duplicate]

I just upgraded vscode on windows 10 to v 1.26.1. A popup came up & said, "We recommend switching to User Setup distribution of Code for Windows. Click here for more info."

Well i clicked & it said to download and i did. The page said,"If you are a current user of the system-wide Windows setup, you will be prompted to switch to the user setup, which we recommend using from now on. Don't worry, all your settings and extensions will be kept during the transition."

Then when i ran the downloaded .exe a popup comes up & says enter image description here

So now I am worried. Are you folks sure my settings, etc. will be preserved if i click yes?

Yes, i'm sure.

User setup for Windows Announced last release, the user setup package for Windows is now available on stable. This setup does not require Administrator privileges to install. It also provides a smoother background update experience.

If you are a current user of the system-wide Windows setup, you will be prompted to switch to the user setup, which we recommend using from now on. Don't worry, all your settings and extensions will be kept during the transition.
