Import module specifier breaks when folder name starts with $

[WesleyYue]

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes

• VS Code Version: 1.78.2
• OS Version: macOS 13.2.1

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Have a typescript module in an import path that contains a folder starting with $, such as "~/routes/trpc+/$trpc/instance"
2. Try to import that module using the auto complete feature
3. Observe that the import path becomes "~/routes/trpc+//instance"

Looks like a duplicate of #53290 and fixed by #53407

Thanks, that does look like a closely related issue. I tried upgrading to 5.1.0-beta (which should contain the fix) in my project but it was still showing the same problem. Is it correct to assume that the LSP should be using the typescript version I have installed? Or is it going to be running its own version?

It uses a bundled copy by default. You have to tell it to use your local TS version by clicking the {} in the status bar next to “TypeScript”.

Great, thanks. Can confirm 5.1.0-beta fixes it.
