Uh hello guys. In this video, I'll show
0:02
you a quick fix solution. If your VS
0:05
code is lagging, if it's slow, if it's
0:07
glitching, then it's a readymade
0:10
solution. I personally tried this as
0:11
well. My VS code was very slow. After I
0:14
applied this, it was really fast as
0:17
well. The speed of VS code really
0:19
increased. The fix is really simple. If
0:21
your terminal is failed to load, let's
0:24
suppose you open the terminal, it also
0:26
takes a lot of time to open the terminal
0:28
as well. or as in all the things that
0:32
you do in VS code opening files typing
0:34
the code it's very slow lagging
0:36
glitching so for that you need to go
0:40
into the C directory uh go to users this
0:45
folder
0:47
and whatever is your username in my case
0:49
it's as go to that and inside this after
0:52
that you need to go to this app data
0:53
folder
0:56
and inside this there there will be this
0:58
folder roaming go into this folder and
1:01
right here you need to search for code
1:03
folder. So this code is where all the VS
1:07
code files are stored. Simply go to this
1:09
folder and right here you need to search
1:12
for two folders. First is this one
1:14
catch. So this stores all the catching
1:18
files data related to VS code. Inside
1:22
this you will find this folder catch
1:24
data and simply delete all these files.
1:27
Click delete and delete all these files
1:31
and restart your VS code
1:37
and same you need to do this for this as
1:39
well. Catch data.
1:44
You need to delete all this. Simply
1:47
click delete and delete. After you
1:49
delete this, simply restart your VS
1:52
code. Simply click the cross button and
1:54
then restart. And uh also
1:58
you just need to restart your computer
2:00
as well. After restarting your computer
2:02
just restart Visual Studio Code and then
2:06
uh try to use VS Code. So the end result
2:10
the VS code will really be fast such as
2:12
the basic operations that you do opening
2:15
files opening the terminal all this will
2:17
be really fast. So in my opinion I
2:20
personally tried this solution and it
2:22
really given me a lot of success. So
2:25
that's why I tried to share this secret
2:27
with you. So definitely try this and if
2:31
your speed of VS code decreased
2:33
definitely comment and also like the
2:35
