Show last modified date for each file in the explorer #124115

This is a fair feature request, however we do not have it on our immediate plan. Thus assigning to backlog for now. Thanks |
Thanks for your quick reply. |

Can this be un-closed? It's a fantastic feature idea. Being able to view & sort my files by size, type, and particularly date-modified in a large code base is very helpful. |
I especially want it because I want to be able to tell what parts of the code base are being actively developed, and what have either died, or require maintenance. |

It's simply amazing that there is resistance to adding this feature. It's arguably THE most basic feature needed by ANY computer user. Not just a programmer. A granny 90 years old who uses the computer twice a year will use a file explorer to search for her family photos by date, or finding a letter she wrote last year addressing her Medicaid plans to stay alive. So, It goes without saying that a programmer who manages hundreds of thousands of files or more with libraries and a complicated code base requires it at the top of their requirements. It's the only way a full stack coder can keep their sanity and not want to throw the computer through a window. With VS code, I find myself having to work on two screens with the weak Windows file explorer system open in another pane just to find what I need. Working on a single screen on a laptop, forget about it. You will spend half your day opening and closing windows if you are the manager and managing a large code base with a lot of files. It's a total joke for VS Code to be so wonderful, but leave out something so basic and fundamental. It's like not having an on/off switch on a computer just to make a point. Or, an automotive manufacturer leaving out the ability to lock a car or forget installing an ignition switch. The navigation system for any application is THE most important item in the application. Phone, web app, native application, you name it. It is number one on the list and the most often ignored item on the to do list. Are you worried about indexing the folders and bogging the system? What gives? |
I also don't understand why this is not implemented yet. This is a standard function in all other editors i know. Without this function i can't use VSC either. I mostly work directly on an ftp server in directories with hundreds of files. Without sorting by date of last edit or sometimes by file size it is impossible there to work. |
I fully agree, please please fix it! Is is sad (and extremely odd!) that this is missing from an otherwise stellar programming environment! |
Would further like to pile on and point out that this is a necessity for large codebases under continued maintenance :) |
Thank you for your answers :) |

Please add the file date in the explorer window by default or by a new option in the settings.
It could be solved like here:

Alternative (luxury) variant: Adding a new option in the explorer to choose the attribute(s) which I like to see there, e.g.
date, file size, file type. It could look like Windows 10 a little bit:
