This morning I noticed something. I never realized it was not there until today. So, may be this is already implemented and I dont know where to look for it or use the feature.

Look at this image.

VSCodeSearching

So, I am searching for a specific file. The thing is, unless I manually open the folder that contains the file, the search wont actually show anything.

Why is this so? In the above image, the only reason I eventually found the file was because I knew that folder contained it.

is this a missing feature or it is present somewhere, and I need toggle that behavior? It would be much better if the search also unfolded the folder that contains the file being searched on its own.

Right now, if I am looking for a specific I have no choice but to unfold each and every folder manually.
