Saving changes in Visual Studio Code from inside Cloud Shell

Question

Folks,
Sorry for such a basic question, but I'd like to know how to save changes to JSON files edited in Visual Studio Code that was launched from inside Azure Cloud Shell. I've made changes to a JSON file using the editor, but can't find a way of saying those changes unless I navigate away to another file and then I'm prompted to save my changes. Does anyone have a cheat sheet of useful keystrokes or something?

Lisa.

Hi @Lisa Lownds ,

You are using Visual Studio Code, which is different from Visual Studio. The tag “vs-general” is related to Visual Studio, for more questions about Visual Studio Code, we suggest you post it to the Stack Overview tagged visual-studio-code forum or GitHub repository where you would get professional support for this product.

Thanks for your understanding.

Sincerely,
Anna

Your file looks like mine, and mine works. I have no trouble debugging PowerShell in VS Code.

Is your lauch.json file in a .vscode directory? Is that .vscode directory in your current project?

VS Code isn't a Powershell application. You're really better off asking question about that product in a forum dedicated its use. The two links in the previous answer would be a good place to start.

I've had similar problems and found that either the code being debugged had errors (missing quotes, mismatched braces, brackets, parentheses, etc.), of VS Code just needed to be stopped and restarted.
