Opening single-folder workspace does not open editor within folder #10143

Problem

I like to use workspaces to isolate and organise all of my projects using the Workspace Explorer extension, which has worked wonders for me as of late. I also use devcontainers in all of my projects and am solely a user of Linux for development (will get to why that last point is important soon).

Every time I open a workspace through the extension or by opening a .code-workspace file, the contents always show the folder itself within the explorer: image

This wouldn't be a problem if my devcontainer could be read, yet for some reason whenever my project is opened in this way, VS Code prompts me to create a new devcontainer every time.

Compare this to when I open the folder itself (or drag it from the top into the center of VS Code): image

Works fine, devcontainers are picked up, everything works.

Ever since I distro-hopped from Ubuntu to Fedora, I've had this issue crop up when I didn't on Ubuntu, and have been planing to spin up my configuration on a Ubuntu VM to see if it persists or if I've misconstrued a coincidence.

Anything that I might be doing wrong? I love my devcontainers and really don't want to port away from them. :(

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open project folder in VS Code (I normally drag the folder from my file manager into VS Code)
  2. Create a workspace - this should auto-enter you into it
  3. Close workspace
  4. Re-open workspace

Because my description is so large I felt it'd be easier to digest using this format, hope it doesn't get in the way.

Is there anything extra I need to supply for this to be looked at by chance?

Thanks for opening.

I'm having trouble reproducing - here's what I did:

@cyrus01337 are my steps different from yours?

cyrus01337 commented 2 months ago

I normally open a folder to be used as a project, create the devcontainer, then save what I have open to a workspace file. Normally I am inside of the project folder, so it's name doesn't really pop up as shown here: image

Compared to here where it does: image

When opening the workspace file afterwards, I end up with the 2nd image. It's possible that an update may have resolved this however, so I'll look into this and see if the issue persists.
