Context-Click (Right-Click) on the title bar of the View container and select the View that you have removed.

Or choose command View: Reset View Locations

This seems to be an bug in VS code and yet to be fixed. If it is not fixed for your version, you can remove the timeline.excludeSources setting from your user settings, and that should restore the view.

To find user settings you can Ctrl + Shift + Q and find Preferences: Open User Settings. There search for timeline and remove the key value.

  1. Press Ctrl+Shift+E and it will open Explore Tab to the left (which shows all the files & folders in the current directory).
  2. Click the three dots on the right, as shown in picture and click Timeline to enable Timeline tab..
