VScode issue when trying to open a project with a big folder

47 Views Asked by At

I have a project with a folder that contains ~800,000 text files

enter image description here

FinancialDataSite_Go\SECfiles\submissions

it's the submissions folder that contains all the text files

whenever I try to open my project up in vscode I get this error

enter image description here

I didn't have this problem until I added all the text files to the submissions folder.

During my countless attempts to open the project folder with vscode, I had a couple successes where I can open the FinancialDataSite_Go folder in vscode but as soon as I try to open the SECfiles folder on the left bar, vscode freezes up and spit out the same error

Is vscode just unable to work with folder that contain many files?
