Clear file content cache in Visual Studio Code

Question

My Visual Studio code, on a Windows machine, keeps on showing me the previous content of a file even after this one has been updated, while notepad ++ doesn't behave in the same way.

Is there a way to somehow clean the cache so as to receive fresh content every time?
