${workspaceFolder} contains a leading slash on windows systems. It must not.

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes/No

VSCODE-About:
Version: 1.92.0 (user setup)
Commit: b1c0a14
Date: 2024-07-31T23:26:45.634Z
Electron: 30.1.2
ElectronBuildId: 9870757
Chromium: 124.0.6367.243
Node.js: 20.14.0
V8: 12.4.254.20-electron.0
OS: Windows_NT x64 10.0.19045

Steps to Reproduce:

0. use a windows system with vscode
1. use ${workspaceFolder} in a .vscode\settings.json value
2. print the calculated value (I am using asciidocjs and print the attribute into a .adoc document, then look at the preview)

the value will be something like "/c:/abc"
it should be "c:\abc"

The direction of the slash actually doesn't matter so much, but the leading slash breaks certain tools, which are unfortunately unable to execute logic which could remove the slash.

The settings.json (inside of a project-local .vscode folder):

{
  "asciidoc.extensions.enableKroki": true,
  "asciidoc.preview.asciidoctorAttributes": {
      "kroki-server-url": "https://kroki.###############",
      "documentroot": "${workspaceFolder}/asciidoc/root/src",
      "imagesdir": "${workspaceFolder}/asciidoc/root/src/images",
  },
}

Thanks! VS Code doesn't do variable resolving for all settings. Since that's an extension provided setting, it's the extension that provides the setting that's including that slash.

This issue is caused by an extension, please file it with the repository (or contact) the extension has linked in its overview in VS Code or the marketplace for VS Code. See also our issue reporting guidelines. If you don't know which extension is causing the problem, you can run Help: Start extension bisect from the command palette (F1) to help identify the problem extension.

Happy Coding!
