Vscode workspace files

Folder paths can be absolute or relative.

I created a workspace, added folders, then saved the workspace.

Later I moved that .code-workspace file somewhere else and opened - no contents under the folder name.

In the .code-workspace file either:

  • add relative (../) path relative to location of workspace file.
  • or add absolute path (/home/user/ worked fine in WSL - where user is actual $USER, but not literally $USER).

microsoft/vscode#33328 Store workspace folder paths in the same format across OS (forward slash) #33328

microsoft/vscode#33188 Relative paths in .code-workspace files are turned into absolute ones on save #33188
