Extended Description
VSCode is probably the most common/best editor to use with clangd on windows, and always sends URIs with a lowercase drive letter (file://c:/...). Most tools produce compile_commands.json with an uppercase drive letter in paths.
In this combination, the background index will entirely fail to work, as clangd thinks the compile_commands.json doesn't correspond to the source files it covers.
