Files treeview is invisible

[fsol11]

Type: Bug

I don't know how to reproduce it. My Visual Studio Code does not show the list of files (files treeview) which normally is shown on the left side on the Explorer pane. I have done everything I could to bring it back, but it just does not show it.

VS Code version: Code 1.85.1 (0ee08df0cf4527e40edc9aa28f4b5bd38bbff2b2, 2023-12-13T09:49:37.021Z) OS version: Windows_NT x64 10.0.22631 Modes:

I suggest you use the Reset View Locations command from the Command Palette (F1).
