Description
If you open a folder via a UNC path (e.g. "\\\server\path\addinSource"), breakpoints are unverified.
However, if you copy the folder to a local directory or map a drive to the UNC path, breakpoints work as expected.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in the TypeScript VS Code Firefox debug adapter with a folder opened through a UNC path, then compare it with a local folder and a mapped drive. Done means breakpoints are verified for UNC paths without regressing the local and mapped-drive cases.
