VSC newbie here.

I'm trying to right-click on my projects' files and selecting Copy Relative Path, the thing is I get the path like this: node_modules\bootstrap\dist\css\bootstrap.min.css

when what I actually need is this: node_modules/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css

Where can I change these settings to avoid the manual editing, It's really time consuming.

Thanks for your help.

As of vscode 1.59 (the next Stable build as of now) you will be able to enable using the / separator even on Windows for the Copy Relative Path command.

Explorer: Copy Relative Path Separator set to /.

explorer.copyRelativePathSeparator

  • auto (default): Uses operating system specific path separation character
  • /: Use slash as path separation character
  • \\: Use backslash as path separation character

See https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/56279

I think it because you used windows in which the os uses \ instead of / in the path. I'd suggest to use raw strings in the path like for example r'node_modules\bootstrap\dist\css\bootstrap.min.css'. Another way to change all the \ to / is by using the replace function in vscode!
