In Visual Studio Code I open file-VS-file compare mode via:
The problem is that I can edit file B (RIGHT side), but can't edit file A (LEFT side).
To hide/show the side bar: Ctrl + B on Linux and Windows. ⌘ Cmd + B on Mac.
In Tools > Options > (or Debug > Options) > Debugging > General, select Edit and Continue in the right pane.
Conversation. VSCode tip: You can move the sidebar/file explorer to the right-hand side of your editor via View > Appearance > Move Side Bar Right. Try it out, and give yourself enough time to get used to it. If you're anything like me, you might find it makes a lot more sense there.
Compare selected filesSelect two files in Solution Explorer and right-click to bring up the context menu. Then select Selected Files to see them side-by-side in the diff view.
Edit: this should be working out of the box in vscode version 1.41.0
It will show Unknown configuration setting
but it's working.
