Root search path is not set to current workspace folder #4

Closed emlautarom1 closed 2 months ago

To reproduce:

Open an instance of VSCode without a folder (a "blank" workspace)
Use "Quick Opener" to find a folder and click on "Add to Workspace". It also works with the default File: Open Folder... command
Use "Quick Opener" and note how the "root" folder is not the current folder in the workspace but a different one (on Windows it points to AppData\Roaming\Code\User)

Hey @emlautarom1! Thanks for creating these issues, I'll make sure to address them as soon as I have some time over 🙏

QuickOpener should start off in the workspace folder by default if you have no open files. I just tried your repro on both a Windows and Mac OS machine and it appears to work as intended for me. Could you record a video of this happening?

Hello and thanks for taking the time to take a look into this. It seems like it was my mistake: when I was opening the folder, the workspace associated with it had settings.json open making "Quick Opener" use the location of the file (AppData\Roaming\Code\User) rather than the root folder of the workspace.

Sorry to bother you with this issue and thanks for the amazing extension.
