jaronfort commented 1 year ago

Environment/version

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create a new workspace.
  2. Save the workspace as a project.
  3. Open up the projects.json file and change the workspace path of the new project to use ~/Documents/MyProjects/my-project.vscode-workspace (instead of c://Users/Me/Documents/MyProjects/my-project.vscode-workspace.
  4. Open the project using the project manager.
  5. Notice the project is not showing in the status bar with no "Hide/Show 'Project Manager'" open in the right-click menu.

Hi @jaronfort ,

I'm not sure this is a Windows related issue, but I couldn't reproduce the error on my MacOS.

The ~ shortcut is supported on project paths and it seems to be properly expanded on project detection of the Status Bar, so it is really weird it is not working in your case.

Btw, does the project path is properly displayed (expanded) when you hover the project in the Project Manager - Favorites view? It should display

Project Name
c:/Users/Me.... (expanded path)
Icon Workspace

Hope this helps

Sorry, I made a mistake. It is actually working fine for me on macOS. I tried replacing the paths to use the "/" delimiter instead of "\" (which is escaped in the string literal as "\") and still no luck.

[image: screenshot.1.jpg] I also confirmed that I can see the project path, workspace icon, and project name when I hover over it in the favorites view.

Btw. Thanks for creating this extension. This has definitely improved my workflow.

Just to let you know, I could reproduce the error on a Windows machine, and neither $home keyword is working.

So, it is definitely something OS specific.

Thanks for reporting

No problem.

Hi, I had the same problem on Windows and was able to resolve it by removing the \ at the end of the path. Best regards
