Uh hello guys, welcome to this video. So
0:02
in this video I will show you if the
0:04
file explorer window is not showing
0:06
inside your VS code. I will show you how
0:08
to fix this file explorer window is this
0:11
window where it actually shows you which
0:13
file you are editing right here
0:15
currently working with. If this window
0:17
is not showing inside your VS code
0:19
currently uh this can be the reason if
0:22
you right click and untick this option
0:24
that's why this window will not be
0:26
showing. As you can see now the file
0:28
explorer window is disabled. So just go
0:32
to this uh left center right click and
0:35
you will see this option appearing
0:37
explorer. So just tick this option so
0:40
that the explorer window can show. So
0:42
now this explorer widget is now showing
0:45
here. So now you will be able to see
0:47
which files you are ex uh editing. One
0:51
other shortcut key you can do is control
0:53
shiftp to open command pallet and just
0:56
type your explorer
1:02
and just click this option or you can go
1:04
to the menu option view and you will see
1:07
this option explorer appearing. If for
1:10
some reason you have disabled this, you
1:12
can go to the view option and then
1:14
select explorer. And now it will again
1:17
enable this explorer right inside your
1:20
VS code. So these are the two different
1:22
options by which you can enable explorer
1:26
and fix. Just right click and you will
1:28
see this option explorer. So, thank you
