In vscode v1.71.2 the window.experimental.windowControlsOverlay.enabled setting has been disabled by default.
This bug was released in vscode v1.71. It may be related to using RTL languages. I would assume this will be fixed in a point release.
Try disabling this setting:
window.experimental.windowControlsOverlay.enabled
from [windows default close button location moved on its own when updating to v1.71.0][1]

Visual Studio Code - icons in Activity Bar have disappeared

Earlier this week I installed the latest release (May 2018) of Visual Studio Code and ever since then all the icons in the Activity Bar (i.e. the long thin bar on the far left of the window) fail to display. I always get the Explorer icon but after that the only one that does display is whatever I currently have open in the sidebar.
Perhaps some screenshots might help explain:
I've searched high and low in Settings to try and find how to get them all to display but I can't find anything. Can anyone help?
I'm on macOS High Sierra 10.13.5 by the way.
Right click on the activity bar itself and select whatever you want have on the activity side bar. if for some reason you don't see the activity bar, go to
View-> Appearance ->Show Activity bar
"Try right clicking the Activity Bar itself. If I right click it I get a list of the icons to show/hide."
In VSCode version 1.59 (Windows 10), the setting of controlling the visibility of activity bar is:
Settings -> User >-> Workbench -> Appearance -> Activity Bar -> "Visible
Controls the visibility of the activity bar in the workbench"
See the screenshot below:
Click on menu, if you don't have the top menu click the alt key the menu will appear. On the menu click view then click appearance, then click show activity bar. If all the activity bar does not show, go back to view menu to bring them back one by one. To keep an icon from disappearing right click on each activity bar, look for keep, click it. That will make it stay.
If you are a windows user and have the latest version of visual studio code
1)First go to the view section in the upper top of the visual studio code.
2)GO to preferences
3)Go to show Activity Bar and click on it.
This is the only fix that worked for me on Mac:
Click "View" > "Open view...". Search for the extension. From there you can open the extension in a side panel.

Customize interface for Visual Studio Code?

Is it possible to change the user interface for Visual Studio Code? Specifically, is it possible to remove the "Git" and "Debugger" panes? Also, how can you edit the menus in the main menu bar?
You can't change the menu in VSCode. The menu items are fix.
For now (speaking for version 1.2.1) you can change the color theme only to customize the user interface.
