Vscode-cpptools: Browse database doesn't clear when there's a configuration change
If includePaths are removed or limitSymbolsToIncludeHeaders change to true, the database isn't being reset, so there's too much stuff in the autocomplete.
Changing the databaseFilename is a workaround (deleting the old db would be good too).

Where is the database stored?

On Windows, the default is C:/Users/< user >/AppData/Roaming/Code/User/workspaceStorage/< some GUID >/ms-vscode.cpptools/.BROWSE.VC.DB. You can rename the file via the configuration properties. On Linux...I'd have to check...somewhere similar.

@sean-mcmanus Thank you. I thought it was missing. And now find it.
