Atom editor not tracking changes and updating the application - atom-editor

I have been using atom editor for making changes to my application code. I recently made a change in my directory - deleted .git and then moved all my files to a new folder.
Now, when I open the folder in atom editor, I do not see different file colors that I use to. It doesn't track which files have changed or anything like that. When I launch the app locally using MacOS terminal, I don't see the changes reflected in my App.
It's quite strange. What do I need to do to fix this issue?
Here's my root directory in atom. All files appear is same color. something doesn't look right.

Directory issue when connecting VS Code to remote server via ftp-simple

I've set up ftp-simple to connect to my remote server. Files show up fine, however directories appear with [DIR] next to them which, when clicked, disappear with a red line through it, as per image below (template-parts was the directory which I had just clicked on).
As mentioned, files are fine - they load perfectly, but it's the directories which have the issue.
Nothing shows up in the output log when this happens and I can't seem to find anything about this issue elsewhere.
The only solution I have found is this.
In vscode, go File->Preferences->Settings.
Then at the search area type this -> ftp-simple.remote-workspace-load-all <- and set it to false.
What this does is, when you first load a directory (the default path that has been set in vsc config), vsc is going to load only the content of this specific directory.
Then, only if you click another directory ([DIR]), it will start to download the content of this directory.

How can I change R home directory?

I need to change the home directory for R / Rstudio, at the moment it works in the OneDrive folder , and it creates problems with sync.
What I would like to change is not just the directory where libraries are installed.
For example, I always get the .Rhistory file in the OneDrive directory, as well as the libraries.
I would like "move" everything to another directory.
I tried with .Renviron file, but it still needs to be placed inside the OneDrive folder, and still I didn't succeed in have evrything moved in another place.
How can I do it?

Netbeans step through out of project tree files for debugging (PHP)

I am writing a Wordpress plugin that depends on another plugin with netbeans.
The project is just containing the files of my plugin and I want to keep it that way to have a clean git repository.
The problem:
I rely on another plugin and want to understand how that plugin works. For this, I want to "step through" the other plugin.
I want to do this on my localhost configuration.
I have basically two destinations:
The project is in my home directory in my github folder
The server files are under c:\wamp64\www\wordpress ...., where the localhost is running
The project is essentially set up correctly to copy files from my github directory to the localhost path (Properties -> Sources)
Then:
I set an include path to the localhost -> wordpress folder in the project properties, and when I now search for a definition in my code that refers to the other plugin, the corresponding file is opened (did not work before setting the include path)
Debugging essentially works, but when I step into a function of the other plugin, the bar becomes grey and the corresponding file is not opened.
Can I change some setting for netbeans to open up the other file (not in the project tree) and step through it?
I have found a reasonable workaround.
I just created a new PHP project in Netbeans with existing sources.
As source, I used the entire wordpress installation in the wamp server path, i.e. c:\wamp64\www\wordpress
I can now 'debug' and step through this new project, but I also need to add the corresponding breakpoints in the files from the server path.
It requires some discipline as I have to open the files from my plugin twice, once in the server path and once in the project path, but only edit the files in the project path.
It works 'ok', but I would still be interested to hear if someone has a more proper solution to this.

Change Jupyterlab startup folder (MacOS: Post Hurricane Catalina)

After updating (Catalina), and reinstalling anaconda3, my new startup folder is the in my users folder, with no way to navigate outside of the users folder. I'm just trying to get a cd directory root so I can navigate to my code files.
I've tried navigating via path (file->open from path, adding in Desktop/) won't navigate there. I've tried navigating directionally out (cd ~/ ) and won't navigate there. I found a post about this, but it's for Windows.
Please help -- this update is ruining my week. Half of my paths are ruined, I'm ready to Time Machine or Ebay this garbage.
I created an alias file and navigated through that to desktop, that works as kinda a strange solution -- basically I alias a folder inside startup folder, and place that on desktop. Only solution I've been able to find, aside from possibly reinstalling from scratch.

How to change the default Open File... (folder) in Netbeans 8.2?

How can I change the default Open File... directory in Netbeans 8.2 for Java SE\ME\EE?
I've edited my projectui.properties file line projectsFolder=DIRECTORY but that only works for projects. I am trying to open individual files without opening the entire project.
File was found (Windows) under "C:\Users\MYNAME\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\8.2\config\Preferences\org\netbeans\modules"
Unlike setting the default project directory in NetBeans, you can't modify the default Open File... directory because there is no such "default directory" to change.
NetBeans behavior when you select Open File... from the File menu (on Windows 10 at least) is as follows:
[1] On the first occasion within a NetBeans session the Documents icon will be pre-selected in the Open dialog window, and your Documents directory will be opened. That's just the way NetBeans works, and cannot be modified. Although you can change the Documents folder that will be opened, you probably shouldn't. See below for details**.
[2] Within the Open dialog you can obviously navigate to any alternative folder to open a file. Thereafter, within that NetBeans session only, that alternative folder will be opened by default on the subsequent File -> Open File... selections, until an alternative directory is selected.
~~~~~
** To change the Documents folder in Windows (which will also change the folder that NetBeans opens on the initial use of File -> Open File..):
In Windows File Explorer select Desktop -> This PC -> Documents and right-click.
Select Properties from the drop down menu, and then select the Location tab in the Document Properties window.
Enter the name of the new folder to be used as the Documents folder and click OK.
Restart NetBeans, select File-> Open File... and the folder NetBeans opens will now be the one you specified in the previous step.
That may appear to have the desired affect, but other Windows applications also use the Documents folder, and may depend on files in that folder, so it shouldn't really be changed without good reason. If you really need to open files in NetBeans that are not within any project the cleanest approach would be to place such files in the Documents folder if possible.
One solution would be to move the NetBeansProjects in the Documents folder mentioned above to the desired place and to place a permanent symlink to the desired folder. Instructions for latter referenced here https://superuser.com/questions/1020821/how-to-create-a-symbolic-link-on-windows-10
Watch out if the secondary location could be temporary (like a network drive) that it's always in place before you launch Netbeans.
