Topic: vscode deleting code

I saved a file on vscode with lean extension but after closing it, the file either disappears or shows 0 kb. I'm not sure what the problem is

Do you have write access to the directory you're saving the file to? Is it on some networked drive or something?

Harsha Nyapathi (Nov 27 2019 at 10:57):

Yes, I have access. Actually, after closing the file, it sometimes shows the message 'updating vscode' , and then all saved files and folders disappear . When it doesn't, they are retained, as far as I've observed and remember

It's a bit hard to figure out what's going on without more info:
- What OS are you on and what version of VS Code are you using?
- Are you using any extensions other than vscode-lean?
- Can you check out the logs corresponding to the sessions where files aren't successfully saved? (see this link for the log locations)
