Beschreibung
Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes
- VS Code Version: 1.115.0 (Universal) — Commit 41dd792b5e652393e7787322889ed5fdc58bd75b — 2026-04-07
- OS Version: macOS Tahoe 26.1 — Darwin arm64 25.1.0
**Environment:**
- TypeScript: 6.0.2
- React: 19.2.4
- Vite: 8.0.3
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a `@types/common/index.d.ts` at the project root using the `declare global {} export {}` pattern to declare global types (e.g. `IUser`).
2. Configure `tsconfig.json` with `typeRoots` pointing to the directory and `include` set to only `["src"]`:
```json
{
"compilerOptions": {
"typeRoots": ["./node_modules/@types", "./@types"]
},
"include": ["src"]
}
```
3. Reference a global type (e.g. `IUser`) in any `.tsx` file inside `src/`.
4. Observe red syntax highlighting: `Cannot find name 'IUser'`.
5. Run **TypeScript: Restart TS Server** — error persists.
6. Run **Developer: Reload Window** — error persists.
**Expected:** TypeScript Server resolves global types from `typeRoots` and shows no syntax highlighting errors.
**Actual:** TypeScript Server fails to resolve global types from `typeRoots` when the directory is outside `include`, producing incorrect `Cannot find name` syntax highlighting errors. The project runs without errors at runtime.
**Workaround:** Adding the `typeRoots` directory explicitly to `include` resolves the syntax highlighting errors:
```json
"include": ["src", "./@types"]
```
`typeRoots` alone should be sufficient for the TypeScript Server to resolve these types.
