Where is workspace "memory" stored and how to clear it?

[ffxsam]

I noticed VS Code memorizes which tabs are open when I re-open a workspace. Where is this information stored? (asking for Mac & Linux)

Windows: C:\Users\<userid>\AppData\Roaming\Code\Local Storage
Linux: /home/<userid>/.config/Code/Local Storage
macOS: /Users/<userid>/Library/Application Support/Code/Local Storage

@bpasero is there a recommended way to clear out workspace cache other than just removing the files? (will that remove anything else unintentionally?)

[bpasero]

@ffxsam open an empty window and type window.localStorage.clear() into dev console

Perfect, thanks!

Oddly enough, I was still left with a 3MB file (same size as before running localStorage.clear()). So I don't think that did the trick.

It would be nice if there were a command-line command, a la Atom's atom --clear-window-state.
