Vscode-project-manager: Allow preservation of unsaved and temporary files when switching project

[kevindashgit]

Coming from tmux/vim - I commonly switch between vim windows and sessions. When I leave a session containing files that are open (in vim) and modified unsaved - I know that when I return to this session, the state is preserved.

In VSCode - using your extension to move around to different projects, it would be great if I could leave the current project w/o being prompted to save - instead I wanna just switch, leaving and preserving current state. If its not saved, leave it open, but not saved - so that when I come back to it - its still in that state.

Hi @kevindashgit ,

I think you are talking about hot exit (initially discussed in https://code.visualstudio.com/blogs/2016/11/30/hot-exit-in-insiders) right?

In this case, this is a VS Code core feature (not from this extension). To achieve that, you have to change your User Settings, updating the Hot Exit setting to onExitAndWindowClose (the default value is onExit).

Hope this helps

@alefragnani right on the money! Thank you!!!
