I edit my code inside tomcat root folder. So I need VSCode to run in mode. I used to write sudo code --user-data-dir and VSCode happily started in root mode. However I do not know what exactly happened yesterday and vscode doesn't simply respond. It doesn't start at all and neither is their any error message. Please help. Noob here
Update : I just figured it out. Apparently there has been an update somewhere and now you need to run sudo code --user-data-dir --no-sandbox
i recommend to use alias to run code --user-data-dir="portable-vscode"
for example
echo "alias vscode='code --user-data-dir="portable-vscode" --no-sandbox --extension-dir portable-vscode/" >> /etc/bash.bashrc
Hey bro open the terminal and type sudo code
I have downloaded flutter and completed my setup am sure its good as I have checked it 5 times and put the correct file path export PATH="$PATH:/Users/KingKimani/Developer/flutter/bin". but I can't run flutter doctor or any flutter command why?
I am currently using the MAC M1 chip.
If you are using zsh do the following.
Open .zshrc file nano $HOME/.zshrc
You will see the commented $PATH variable here
# If you come from bash you might have to change your $PATH.
# export PATH=$HOME/bin:/usr/local/...
Remove the comment symbol(#) and append your new path using a separator(:) like this.
export PATH=$HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin:/Users/KingKimani/Developer/flutter/bin:$PATH
Activate the change
source $HOME/.zshrc
You're done !!!
After setting the correct path on the system.
System terminal needs to have latest environment configurations.
Restart/Reload terminal required.
If you are using zsh shell & have save path on .zshrc file.
below command will reload configurations
source ~/.zshrc

Recently I updated Mac OS to latest Catalina and my terminal which is using zsh now start showing me following error:
zsh: command not found: flutter
It was working fine before update.
You need to update the environment path.
Open terminal.
vim $HOME/.zshrc
Press "I" key for going to insert mode.
add the following line in the opened file:
export PATH="$PATH:/YOUR_FLUTTER_DIR/flutter/bin"
Press "Esc" then write :wq! in terminal and press enter to exit vim.
Reopen the terminal and check "flutter doctor"
If this solution did not work, remove the double quote from path or use the full path explicitly instead of ~.
Working on macOS Catalina 10.15.5 (19F101).
I have used .zprofile instead of .zhrc
Provide Full Disk Access to Terminal by
Setting -> Security & Privacy -> Full Disk Access. Add Terminal
If the current terminal uses bash, change to zshell using the below command
chsh -s /bin/zsh
In the root directory i.e something like /Users/^YourAccount^ execute the below
touch .zprofile
vim .zprofile
Press I to enter insert mode. Type the below
export PATH=$PATH:/Users/^YourAccount^/^YourPath^/flutter/bin
Save and quit by pressing Esc, then :wq and Enter
Close Terminal and reopen Again. Then try executing flutter command
For me removing double quotes did the fix.
Try changing
export PATH="$PATH:[PATH TO FLUTTER]/flutter/bin"
into
export PATH=$PATH:[PATH TO FLUTTER]/flutter/bin
adding few more steps for easiness:
Open terminal.
vim $HOME/.zshrc
Press "I" to open insert mode.
add the following line in the opened file:
export PATH=$PATH:[PATH TO FLUTTER]/flutter/bin (remember I don't have double quotes here)
Press "Esc" then type :wq in terminal to exit edit mode.
Type
source .zshrc to reload the terminal for changes
You must update your environment $PATH variable.
1) Open the file $HOME/.zshrc $HOME is your home path
2) add the following line in the opened file:
export PATH="$PATH:/YOUR_FLUTTER_DIR/flutter/bin"
3) save the changes and restart your terminal session.
The process is also documented here
Follow these steps:
Open finder
Enter Cmd + Shift + G
Type ~ in Go to the folder popup.
Now enter Cmd + Shift + . to show hidden files.
Open .zshrc
Add this line
export PATH="$PATH:/YOUR_FLUTTER_DIR/flutter/bin"
Replace this /YOUR_FLUTTER_DIR with the path to your flutter directory.
In my mac, the path is
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/FlutterDevelopment/flutter/bin
in android studio terminal, simply just type this command:
export PATH="/YOUR_FLUTTER_DIR/flutter/bin:$PATH"
change YOUR_FLUTTER_DIR to your actual directory
I updated from Mojave to Catalina and running Terminal, switched to the default/preferred zsh shell, from the bash shell.
Then was hit with
zsh: command not found: flutter
so, followed the advice seen elsewhere to only add the following to Users/MyUserId/.zshrc
export PATH="$PATH:/YOUR_FLUTTER_DIR/flutter/bin"
echo $PATH showed that /Users/MyUserId/flutter/bin was now one of the configured PATHs.
However, I couldn't get "flutter doctor" to work but came across a post on jelliesgame.com which suggested copying
Users/MyUserId/.bash_profile to Users/MyUserId/.zshenv
Now, flutter doctor gives a clean bill of health
This worked for me:
Steps:
Type on the terminal:
open .zshrc (This opens the document in text edit)
Add this to the end of the file:
export PATH="/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/Documents/code/tools/flutter/bin:$PATH"
Save and close .zshrc
Then type:
flutter doctor
Had the same issue and just realized that I forgot to add the close quote
So the correct way is to add to .zshrc by typing vim ~/.zshrc
PATH="$PATH:$HOME/Flutter/flutter/bin"
or
export PATH="$PATH:/YOUR_FLUTTER_DIR/flutter/bin"
then run source ~/.zshrc or just open a new terminal window
I tried installing flutter on my MAC according to the advice here, but it still doesn't work, after searching for it I found an article here.
So, I change my .zshrc file to:
export PATH="$PATH:/Users/YOUR_PROVILE_NAME/YOUR_DEVELOPMENT_FOLDER/flutter/bin"
Change YOUR_PROVILE_NAME to your name profile, also YOUR_DEVELOPMENT_FOLDER to your development folder for flutter
and now it's working.
Note:
I use Catalina OS v10.15.4
I followed URL to resolve my issue.
I simply created a .zshrc file which was not exist then added my PATH variables copied from existing .bashrc.
I had the same problem when upgrading to mac Catalina 10.15.4:
After many days of research, I have achieved success. Here are the steps I did:
First, open the terminal on your mac.
Next, use the command
cat .bash_profile
and copy the content.
Then type this command into the terminal:
nano $ HOME / .zshrc
and paste the content just copied above into. Save then type
source $ HOME / .zshrc
to refresh this file. Next type
echo $ PATH
to see if the content has been updated. If successful type
flutter --version
and you will see the result.
There are quite a few answers mentioned above pretty much same. I would say worth seeing into the SHELL using echo $SHELL command,
If you’re using Bash, edit $HOME/.bash_profile or $HOME/.bashrc. If you’re using Z shell, edit $HOME/.zshrc. If you’re using a different shell, the file path and filename will be different on your machine.
N.B. Don't forget you need to add VIM before either command in the terminal app.
For further details, click the link Update your path, and look into the section Update your Path. I hope it would help many especially new comers to MAC OS. Cheers
For me .zshrc worked instead of .zprofile. I believe this is because I had created .zshrc earlier and now when I tried creating .zprofile, it was looking into .zshrc file.
You can check if .zshrc file using ls -a command
It appears that VSCode always opens a folder in with the last UI state it had.
I'm looking for something like Sublime's remember_open_files: false, or in other words, I would like VSCode to open up with a clean UI state regardless of what state the UI was in the last time the folder was open.
What's happening now:
cd my-project-folder/
code .
# VSCode opens folder with saved UI state
What I want:
cd my-project-folder/
code .
# VSCode opens folder with fresh UI state
I tried to do it through command line using the command
code -n .
which should have opened VS code in current folder with a new session but it does not seem to work at all. I believe that code . seems to ignore the -n new session option and restores the previous session for the folder. So this feature is probably not implemented in VS code.
(Refer here for the commandline options for VS code.)
this is the command that works for me on windows
code -r .
From inside VS Code built-in terminal, cd into your project folder/directory and enter command:
code -a .
Note period at end.
This will open your current directory/project folder without opening a new window.
Part of the answer on this thread worked for me. Basically, make sure VSC is in the Applications folder. Then open the Command Palette (F1 or ⇧⌘P on Mac) and type shell command to find the Shell Command: Install 'code' command in PATH command.
Restart Visual Studio Code if it's open. In terminal, navigate to the folder you want to open in VSC, and type code .. Hopefully it should work for you.
If you are using a Mac, you need to first install the VSCode command amongst the shell command list.
Do this:
Open VSCode
press CMD + SHIFT + P
type shell command
select Install code command in path
navigate to any project from the terminal and type code .
code . opens VS Code at the current terminal folder
If you are using VS Code [Version: 1.50.0] then open your command prompt and go to your project's directory and just run the command:
code -a .
i.e. [Also can see the photo]
[1]: https://i.stack.imgur.com/sMmkH.png
$ code . --user-data-dir=.
This will open Visual Studio Code in current working directory. I use Bash with Ubuntu 16.04LTS.
I am using VS Code Version 1.24.1 (As of the time of original posting).
If you want to open a folder through the terminal, you can execute the command:
code -n name_of_your_folder/
or
code -n path_to your_folder/
Same thing goes for a file, and these open VS Code in a new window.
Also, note that you should have VS Code installed.
You're welcome!
I checked through all of the settings available in the VSCode preferences for me, and I don't think there is a way to do this.
There are some settings related to what VSCode window instance that folders will open into, but nothing that seems similar to Sublime Text's remember_open_files setting.
The closest thing I found was running code --user-data-dir . (feel free to replace . with some other directory so you don't pollute your current working directory) from the terminal to specify that VSCode shouldn't remember ANY previous settings, but this seems like overkill for what you're trying to accomplish (as VSCode will literally run as if it's the first time it's being run after a fresh install).
EDIT: I just discovered a View: Close All Editors command in the command palette (CMD + SHIFT + P). The keyboard shortcut for OSX is CMD + K, CMD + W, and this will close all the files you have opened!
I have the same problem on Mac.
I solved it in the following steps:
I opened the "Command Pallete" on the VSCode. This can be done by CMD + SHIFT + P
Type "shell"
Click on 'Install code command in path'
Give an administrator password
You will get a message that it has been installed
Now run "code ."
NB: Make sure you already cd into the folder you want to open before you run code .
If you want to open folder with vscode, you just go to folder ( you can user terminal or file explorer) with terminal, and do "code ."
To get the right folder in VS Code v 1.50.1 Terminal I tried a lot of options which didn't work for me. At the end I found very easy solution. I went to File->Open Workspace and found that my Workspace had the wrong folders inside it, which I simply deleted (from Workspace only!). Then I opened the folder I needed in my Workspace, opened Terminal->New Terminal, and everything worked perfectly well. Please let me know if this will work for someone else.
This command works to open a specific folder in VS code using terminal
code -r Documents/VS/C++/
here -r switch is used to open a file or a folder in an already opened VS code window
and then you specify the path of the file or folder you want to open
if you want to open it in a new window use -n switch instead of -r
This works for me with VSCode on Linux:
cd path/to/project
codium .
I tried every mentioned answers, what's work from me is this:-
I created a shell script to open folders.
$ sudo nano /usr/local/sbin/code2
/usr/bin/code-oss -n --user-data-dir '/home/myusername/.config/Code - OSS2/' -a $#
$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/sbin/code2
You can remove --user-data-dir '/home/myusername/.config/Code - OSS2/' from the script if you want to use default code-oss config folder.
When I want to open a folder, I use the command like this :-
$ code2 .
I add this command code2 to open with option thunar to open folders directly from files manger.
Go to the directory in the command pallet on your computer the navigate to the the specific folder using cd
the type code . and that will open the folder and the files in it inside vs code. works like a charm.
If Visual Studio Code is installed using flatpak then a bash alias can help launch the application from the terminal.
alias code="flatpak run com.visualstudio.code"
I did it a simpler way just by three steps. I am currently in a project folder and want to open another folder in vs code using the cli or terminal. What I first did is navigated in the folder which I wanna open in vs code inside the terminal. Once I m inside that particular directory or folder I simply typed the command :
start code .
This will open that directory or folder in a new vs code window.
The complete process is :
open the terminal is vs code
navigate to the folder u want to open
once u r inside that particular folder type the command :
start code .
Is there a way of opening a file from the terminal in Visual Studio Code that opens in the same vscode instance that runs the terminal? Similar to c9 tool in Cloud9.
I'm aware of the code tool, but when you run code something.php from the integrated terminal it opens a new vscode instance, which is not what I want...
You can use -r or --reuse-window command line option.
code -r something.php
just
code file_name
I tried it on Win10 and on Linux (Ubuntu)
I don't know what operating system you're using, but on MacOS you can just say open filename.ext in the integrated terminal, and it will open a new tab in the same VSCode instance, ready for you to edit.
If you are having command not found: code in macOS, use a full path to it.
/Applications/Visual\ Studio\ Code.app/Contents/Resources/app/bin/code -r [filename]
Open Visual Studio Code
Press CMD + SHIFT + P (this opens "Command Palette")
Type shell command
Select “Install code command in path”
Navigate to any project from the terminal, and type code .
If it didn't work, select “Uninstall code command from path” first, then reinstall it again.
I use code -r . to open the current directory in the main window.
You can use the code command from the CLI to open a file, but if you want it to open in the existing window, either use code -r <file> as mentioned in other answers (which does work for me on Ubuntu Linux), or, if -r does not work (under WSL?), make sure window.openFilesInNewWindow is either off or default in settings.json or the in VS Code settings UI, then use code <file>.
Many things can be found in open --help
A work around that worked for me on MacOS is:
open -a 'Visual Studio Code.app' something.php
in the version 1.31.0 that I have installed, on Windows 7, the only way I found to do this is to e.g. change the file associations in system so that .cproj and .cs files are opened by Visual Studio Code by default, and type "filename.cs" in Terminal to open file by that name in the same window... -r option is not working for the first call (opens a new window), but with each subsequent call that same window is correctly reused. ok can't get to open whole directories this way - it's a bit shoddy anyway. probably it would be more convenient to use an outside shell and work with "-r" option
VSCode 1.64 (Jan. 2022) comes with a new command:
Keyboard Navigable Links
Previously, link navigation in the terminal required the use of a mouse.
Now, links can be opened using only the keyboard via the following commands:
Terminal: Open Detected Link... to view all links (web, file, word)
Terminal: Open Last Web Link... ex: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode
Terminal: Open Last File Link... ex: /Users/user/repo/file.txt
Check if the last command Terminal: Open Last File Link... would help in your case.
