Explorer window

The Explorer window is used to open, browse, and manage all of the files and folders in your project. 

After opening a folder in Visual Studio Code, the contents of the folder are shown in the Explorer window. With the contents available in the Explorer window, you can do many things:

• Create, rename, and delete files and folders
• Move files and folders with drag and drop
• Use the context menu to explore all options

Visual Studio Code works very well with other command-line tools that you might already be using. If you want to run a command-line tool in the context of the folder you currently have open in Visual Studio Code, right-click the folder and select Open in Terminal (macOS or Linux) (or Open in Command Prompt on Windows).

You can also navigate to the location of a file or folder in the Windows File Explorer Window by right-clicking on a file or folder and selecting Reveal in Explorer (or Reveal in Finder on macOS, or Open Containing Folder on Linux).
