I am trying to change the FileZilla filetype association and set vscode as default for any filetype. I couldn't find installed application path or executable file to give a path. How do I make vscode the default executable for all filetypes?

If for some reason it was installed in a different directory, from a terminal type: 

which code

And it will tell you the path to the executable.

If you used snap to install it, then it will be at /snap/bin/code, but if you didn't use snap or did not find it there, then just execute this command:-
