Hi @jano23 ,

I'm sorry to hear that.

Could you provide more details?

Be aware that Bookmarks are stored per project by default, which means it stores different bookmarks data for each folder (full path) you open. If you copy the same folder to other location and open it in VS Code, the previous bookmarks are not restored, because this new folder is exactly this, a new folder. The same happens if you rename the folder (or any parent folder). VS Code will handle each folder as a separate location

Hope this helps

projects are located locally on my C:\ drive and I haven't changed their location in years. I update VS Code as soon as they post updates. So my guess is yes, I did before they disappeared. I'm including a screenshot of the settings:

  • Where the projects is stored: local, external drive or remotes (like Docker, SSH, WSL).
  • How are you bookmarks settings defined?
  • Did you update VS Code or your OS prior vanishing

I guess images are not attached when you answer using email, so I can’t see it.

Anyway, if your project are local and you didn’t change its location, I can only guess two alternatives:

  1. Something crashed bookmarks data. Its data is located using VS Code internals API (a SQLite database shared by every extension and VS Code itself).
  2. Something happened while opening the folder and the extension failed to load the bookmarks.

It the failure is happening for every project you have, I suppose option 1. If the failure is on only for some projects, I suppose option 2.

I'm closing this issue because no new comments has been added since my last question. Feel free to reopen/comment if the error still occurs.

Thanks for your understanding

Thanks Alessandro,

I am going to recreate them and see how it goes from now on
