Answer 1

VsCode inlines the tree structure when folders are empty. You have make sure you are really selecting the parent folder when creating a second child folder. If you have selected child folder when creating new folder then you'll end up creating a grand child folder.

I'll recommend you to checkout this answer to disable compact folders: Turn off visual studio code inline parent/child folder display
