node_modules not showing in tree

[primelos]

Issue Type: Bug

I working on a cloned server in node.js. When I run npm install the node_modules folder does not show on the left side with the other files and folders. At first I thought it was not working but when i check the folder using the finder in my mac I can see the node_modules was created. If I close vscode and reopen it then I can see the folder.

I can not reproduce this.
Can you reproduce using Visual Studio Code Insiders https://code.visualstudio.com/insiders/

[IllusionMH]

Do you have node_modules in your files.exclude configuration for User or Workspace level?
