'Have VSCode close tabs from right to left

Currently, when I press ctrl+w to close a tab in VSCode, it will close the tab, and then jump to the last used tab as the active tab.

Is there a way I can have vscode always just jump to the tab to the left of the tab that I just closed?



Solution 1:[1]

Just go to settings, search for Workbench › Editor: Focus Recent Editor After Close and unselect it.

That is the same than adding this line to your settings.json file. "workbench.editor.focusRecentEditorAfterClose": false
