Description
Basically, I have a disk called "D" which contains all my coding projects on it. This extension by default opens "C" disk, when I try to switch to "D" using "D:/" (or "D:\") it tries to find that folder inside "C:\Users\username_here\D".

Research direction
Start by locating the extension's path-handling entry point and reproduce navigation to D:/ on Windows. Trace why an absolute drive path is resolved under C:\Users\username_here, then verify that switching to D: opens the drive root rather than a folder inside the default drive.
