Menu
I usually work on larger projects with many files that would contain the search query. So I would open the files I want to modify and do a find/replace across all currently opened files. Can this be done in vs code?
The feature I'm looking for is implemented in Notepad++, but I'd prefer not to have to switch editors for this task.

To perform a search across all your open files, use the following shortcuts. For Mac use “Command + Shift + F”. For Windows and all other operating systems use “Ctrl + Shift + F”.
Search File Explorer: Open File Explorer from the taskbar or select and hold the Start menu (or right-click), select File Explorer , then select a search location: To quickly find relevant files from your PC and the cloud, search from Home. To find files stored inside a folder, search from a folder like Downloads.
Search across files# VS Code allows you to quickly search over all files in the currently opened folder. Press Ctrl+Shift+F and enter your search term. Search results are grouped into files containing the search term, with an indication of the hits in each file and its location.
Select text that you want to filter. Press Ctrl+K Ctrl+F ( ⌘K ⌘F on macOS). Alternatively, press F1 and run the command named Filter Text Inplace .
For me somehow it works just by typing ./ in the files to exclude field.

Is tracking a search "scope" such as "all open files".
