VSCode needs to be restarted after modifying tsconfig and tslint files in nrwl nx projects to eliminate errors

Question

I'm working on a project with Nrwl nx in VSCode and whenever I change a route to a library or the prefix for a library my code shows a bunch of false errors. Everything still renders as expected but I need to reboot VSCode to make all the red lines and text go away. Why is this happening? Is there a way to do something in the terminal to reset/update whatever it is that corrects itself at reoot?

I think a quick fix to this is to restart the TypeScript Server within VSCode using the Command Palette.

CMD + SHIFT + P then type Restart TS Server

you can also open the "Go to File" dialog using CMD + P and then type > to enter the Command Palette.

Just for people who aren't familiar with using CMP + P, don't ignore the ">" symbol in his answer like I did please. – Boz May 26 '23 at 03:35
@Boz my bad, you can also use `CMD + SHIFT + P` to enter the Command Palette directly – ChazUK Jul 18 '23 at 09:36

This is a known (and buggy?) behavior in VSC. I use TS with Angular 12, and the following works for me:

Open the command palette using Ctl + Shift + p (or Cmd + Shift + p on Mac)
Type "Restart Angular Language Server"
On rare occasions that the above doesn't work, in step 2, you can write "Developer: Reload Window"

I hope Microsoft will fix this issue soon - until then, this is the best solution I know.
