[BUG] - Bookmarks sidebar option not there anymore #648

Closed stephanieraymos closed 12 months ago

stephanieraymos commented 1 year ago

Steps to reproduce Bookmarks icon used to show in sidebar, now it's not there, and it's not an option when i left click to see the ones that are checked to show in the sidebar. I have nothing in my settings.json that disables this.

I found something from 2021 that suggested to uninstall, close all vscode windows and then reinstall the extension. That did not work.

Hi @stephanieraymos ,

Is the extension itself still working? I mean, does its commands are available in the Command Palette and still works?

If the answer is yes, I suggest you to call the Bookmarks: Focus on Explorer View command, via Command Palette. It is a built in command, created by VS Code. which should focus/display the Bookmarks Explorer View. Doing so, it should display where it is.

If this does not work, I suggest you to call the View: Reset View Locations command, via Command Palette. This command will (as it name says) reset any reorg you may have made on your views (any view) to its default location. This should work.

If it does not work, you should follow the uninstall process already mentioned on older posts. But, be sure to follow all the steps, in special the one that says you should Close All VS Code Windows. This is required because, unless you really close all VS Code windows, VS Code will not delete the uninstalled extension, and any reinstall would be simply reactivate the extension.

Hope this helps

Thank you! The first command popped open bookmarks in sidebar but didn't actually show my bookmarks. The second command to reset view locations worked! It's there now. Thank you!
