On Windows 10, truffle/Assert.sol is not found

See original GitHub issue

I’ve asked for help in the Truffle Gitter before filing this issue.

Issue

On Windows 10, VS Code IDE: when following the PET Store tutorial, I get the following error when writing a test file:

import "truffle/Assert.sol"; - Source truffle/Assert.sol not found

Looks like truffle folder is not recognized

Environment

Operating System: Windows 10
Truffle version: 4.0.5
Ethereum client: Ganache
node version: 8.9.1
npm version: 5.6.0

I’m having the same issue following the pet shop tutorial. The tutorial does not mention a git repo to clone, we just unbox the pet-shop box.

I don’t think the editor plays a part in this problem. Where should these files be located? Don’t they come included with the truffle package that is installed globally?

If anyone can explain this in greater / clearer detail that would be great.

What is the initial installation sequence when it fails?
Why does re-installing work?
