File events broken when opening workspace outside of a VM

Might be expected.

1. Have a win VM on your mac, open vscode inside the win VM
2. In vscode open a repository which lives on a drive asociated with the mac
3. Notice file events are broken

@isidorn is that a very large folder? does it work with a smaller example or does the error always show?

@bpasero no, it is a very small folder.
Though I do not always get the error in the console.
The issue that I see always in this setup is that my workspace settings are only applied on restart, thus I infered file events are missing

I can reproduce with the sample on https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.filesystemwatcher.filter(v=vs.110).aspx so this seems like a bug in the FileSystemWatcher to me.
