Hi, I am new with ember, currently I am using ember-cli 3.6.0 and live reload is not working properly, it only reloads automatically when I remove or add files, but it does not when I modify files. I am using Visual Studio Code for editing.

Here is my .ember-cli file:

> { “disableAnalytics”: true, “ssl”: true, “usePods”: false, “liveReload”: true }

Can you tell me what I did wrong here ?

Hi @EUGinsane, what operating system are you using?

And if you’re on OSX or Linux, do you have [watchman installed](https://ember-cli.com/user-guide/#watchman)?

Really sorry for my lack of knowledge, you just gave me the reason why this happened to me. I just checked **.watchmanconfig** file:

> { “ignore\_dirs”: [“tmp”, “play”, “dist”, “node\_modules”, “app”, “tests”] }

It ignores all important folders 😃Thanks @ef4
