How to quick search files in whole workspace (Visual Studio Code)

Question

I have used ctrl+p to search my file in whole project but its not working. I am seaching 'Request.php' file which is used to get request. but I am unable to find this using 'ctrl+p'.

Although, ctrl+p finds my controllers and other stuff but it does not search files which are deep down in directory like :

Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request.php.

Is there ant short key to find these kind of files?

Answer 1

Go to VS Code Editor:

File-> Preferences-> Settings

User Settings file will be open.

Now, search key 'search.useIgnoreFiles' and set its value to 'False' by clicking on 'pencil icon'.

Now, Ctrl+p will search all files.

Answer 2

In VSCode, you can go to File > Preferences > Settings and search for the setting Use ignore files and clear the checkbox. This will enable VSCode to search for files in Vendor directory too.
