How to change settings and application folders in VSCode

Question

Is it possible to change these folders for Visual Studio Code?

C:\Users\<USER>\.vscode 

C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Roaming\Code

I want these folders to be on one custom place. I want to sync these folders with Google Drive for example. I dont want to use extensions, this is no option for me.

您可以使用符号链接（using the mklink command），VSCode无需明确支持它（I don't think it does at the moment）。

例如，我使用符号链接来共享VSCode和VSCode Insiders之间已安装的扩展，这意味着我的：

C:\Users\<USER>\.vscode-insiders\extensions

文件夹是指向

的符号链接

C:\Users\<USER>\.vscode\extensions

为此，我在cmd中运行了以下内容：

mklink /D C:\Users\<USER>\.vscode-insiders\extensions C:\Users\<USER>\.vscode\extensions

当然，您也可以在Google云端硬盘中的某个文件夹中添加符号链接。
