If i try search something in vs code it works fine but even after it has found the result i am looking for it continues to search, which is not ideal because i think it is searching everything in the node-modules folder, which depending on my search term, with freeze vs code completely.

I know i could probably just regex the node-modules folder out of the search, but its so simple as it is , it always finds the results quickly but then just hangs. Don't know if i have maybe overlooked something in the editor but is there a simple stop on searching?

Just press esc to stop the search

Here's the default keybinding for that:

{ "key": "escape", "command": "search.action.cancel", "when": "listFocus && searchViewletVisible" }
