Description
- VSCode Version: 1.87.2
- Local OS Version: Windows 10 Enterprise 22H2
- Remote OS Version: Ubuntu 22.04.4
- Remote Extension/Connection Type: WSL (VSCode extension v0.86.0)
I am getting high CPU usage and an unresponsive 'explorer' sidebar in VSCode in a project with somewhat deeply nested directories (React, not Java ;). The 'loading' animation at the top of the sidebar frequently displays, and some files & directories fail to open at all.
Possibly relevant detail: my workstation is managed by a domain administrator and has Windows Defender Smartscreen enabled and locked.
At the times in which the explorer hangs (mostly when renaming, copying or creating files through the explorer) I also see high CPU usage for the Remote Desktop process on my machine but no significant activity from any Nodejs process within WSL:
