I made this window disappear. How do I recover it?
You can click on View and then Click on Command Palette or type Ctrl + Shift + P keyboard shortcut. Click on Toggle Render Whitespace. This option can be used to toggle Indentation dots in VSCode.
Ctrl+D selects the word at the cursor, or the next occurrence of the current selection. Tip: You can also add more cursors with Ctrl+Shift+L, which will add a selection at each occurrence of the current selected text.
Tip: You can also right-click on the editor Tab and select Open Preview (Ctrl+Shift+V) or use the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P) to run the Markdown: Open Preview to the Side command (Ctrl+K V).
Those are called breadcrumbs in most IDEs. In VSCode, it's no different.
Find the setting by going to your settings and searching "Breadcrumbs".
If you choose to not use the fancy settings editor, you can manually add this to your configuration:
"breadcrumbs.enabled": true
As of May 2019 (version 1.35), breadcrumbs are enabled by default in VSCode. They can still be toggled using the steps outlined above.
I'd like to add one more thing to Ian MacDonalds answer:
You can simply toggle them within the "View"-menu View > Toggle Breadcrumbs
