I'm on a macbook just messing around with a project I had when I suddenly did something and now my menu bar and my explorer on the left side of the screen is gone:
This is a picture from google to better demonstrate what I'm looking for:
I tried to find the layout file and then just delete it making the thing reset it self but I couldn't find it.
um i actually found the file now so its all good:) if anyone in the future have the same problem just go to "~/Library/Application Support/Code/User/" (macos) and delete the settings.json and then just restart the visual studio code app and its all good

This makes me crazy! It should be trivial but I cant find in settings how to get back the old look in the file explorer window. Well it's not that old, it was just a few weeks ago.
First image shows what I want and the second image shows what I have now. To be clear I don't want the folder structure to show up like this:
routes \ admin
or
views \ admin
I want it to look like in the first image.
The question is how to get it back so it looks like in the first image. What setting is it?
In visual Studio Code.
Ctrl + Shift + P (to open the command pallete)
Type Open Settings (UI) and press Enter
On the Settings search box, type Compact Folders and uncheck the checkbox

Visual Studio Code: can't edit LEFT-side file during COMPARE
(2 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I'm using VS Code 1.140.1 on MacOS Catalina and I need to compare two files.
I open both files with VS Code
I select both
I right click on them and I select "Compare Selected"
The comparison works but when I try to edit while comparing I cannot, VS Code says: "Cannot edit in read-only editor".
That is a bit frustrating because other IDE like Notepad++ they indeed allow you to edit while comparing and this is very useful as it shows you when the 2 files are the same.
Is there any way around?
Or do you suggest to change VS Code with another IDE?
After exhaustive research I found the solution here:
Visual Studio Code: can't edit LEFT-side file during COMPARE
In fact only the LEFT side is not editable, the RIGHT side is alright.

Default indent line guide in Visual Studio Code?
(3 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
One of my extensions in Visual studio code turned off default vertical guidelines and even if it seems trivial I can't find setting that may turn it on again.
How it works now:
Expected result:
the setting your are looking for is:
Editor: Render Indent Guides
or through the settings file itsef:
"editor.renderIndentGuides": true
You can access the settings by pressing CTRL/⌘+, and then search for "render indent".
