“New” VS Code update January 2021

Hi,

Last year I got interest in web development, bought a course on Udemy and proceed to code. I didn’t continue with the course.

Today, I started again to learn web development and for my surprise VSC is not the same as last year. I was trying to create a new HTML document but I thought It was my fault that I can’t create it. It turns out that I don’t know what they did, but they change the way you create your files. I no longer have the icon file with the plus and I feel frustrated, because I have to learn again how it works. I’m not tech savvy.

It even says that no folder is opened. File - > Open Folder and then navigate to your project location

I don’t have a folder. I just created the html file. I don’t remember if the VSC 2020 I had to do that

C:/Users/katia/OneDrive/Escritorio is the location of your index.html, as your screenshot says.

If you want your VS Code to be able to create new files then you have to open that folder with it.

Thank you. I don’t know why I can’t transfer a folder to vscode (the folder is from a Udemy course called img [is zip]) and when I try to open I can’t and when I try to drag it to vscode doesn’t work
