In Azure Data Studio shipped with VS Code version 1.42.0 everything fine

I get this too. It's pretty painful.

We will try to get a fix into our recovery, thanks for noting.

As a workaround you can configure these keybindings:

{
    "key": "ctrl+up",
    "command": "list.focusUp",
    "when": "listFocus && !inputFocus && inQuickOpen"
},
{
    "key": "ctrl+down",
    "command": "list.focusDown",
    "when": "listFocus && !inputFocus && inQuickOpen"
}

Maybe it's just me, but new behavior is still not correct... When I bring up "quick open" list and attempt to move current item, it does move, but at the same time content scrolls too! That makes it difficult to see what I'm selecting as all items scroll.

The workaround was to add this snippet to key bindings:

{
    "key": "ctrl+up",
    // "command": "list.focusUp",
    "when": "listFocus && !inputFocus && inQuickOpen"
},
{
    "key": "ctrl+down",
    // "command": "list.focusDown",
    "when": "listFocus && !inputFocus && inQuickOpen"
}

Note the commented out commands.

Hi....
If You ask me I would suggest going back to the previous version that worked and then update to the newer version when it comes and if the newer version still causes problem downgrade to the version that previously worked.

https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_43

Go to this link and download this version that is 1.43.2 which is stable and is working .
I my self went back to this version because this one is working pretty good.
You just have to download the setup and install it nothing will get affected and just vscode version will change but everything else will remain same like your opened tabs etc.
