Hey, this is a known issue with the file tree in Agent mode on Windows. It most often shows up after bulk operations or Git commands run by the agent. We’re already tracking it, there’s no ETA for a fix yet, but we’ve shipped a few fixes in this area over the last few weeks, so it should keep getting better.
Workarounds:
- Reload Window
Ctrl+Shift+P→ Developer: Reload Window, after that the tree usually comes back - Collapse and expand the project root folder
A few quick questions so I can link your report to the right ticket:
- After Reload Window, does the tree work normally, or does the issue come back right away?
- Which Git actions trigger it most often commit, branch switch, stash?
- If you have the Request ID from the agent session where it happened, please share it, it helps with debugging
