What's the VS Code hotkey for opening recent workspaces?












0















When Visual Studio Code opens, it shows a Welcome screen with, among other things, a list of recent workspaces:



Recent items on Welcome screen



If I click More... at the bottom of that list, a dropdown opens with a longer list of recent projects to choose from.



Is there a hotkey (or hotkey-bindable command) to bring down that list, without having to go via the welcome screen?

    Ctrl + R should do it.

  • Running that command opens a file open dialog, which is not what I'm after. There is a command Open Recent... (workbench.action.openRecent) which seems to be bound to Ctrl+R in the default key bindings, but it doesn't trigger on my machine... :/

    Adding the exact same config to my user-defined keybindings seems to help, though. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Ramiz seems to have the right answer in the comments. I wonder if you have custom key bindings setup and/or adjusted this somehow without realizing. Suggesting this as you seem to know how to do this.
You can go to the help menu and look for the Keyboard Shortcuts reference (Ctrl+k+r) or look https://code.visualstudio.com/shortcuts/keyboard-shortcuts-windows.pdf for the default.
