Visual Studio Code – How can I open the breadcrumbs dropdown using only the keyboard in VS Code?

In VS Code, Is there a way to open up the file selector dropdown, i.e. this:
dropdown_example

with just the keyboard- such that I will be able to use the arrow keys + enter to switch files?

    To access the breadcrumbs using the keyboard, you can use the following commands (in the command palette, or use the corresponding keybinding):

    • Focus Breadcrumbs (On Windows and Linux, ctrl+shift+;. On macOS, use cmd instead of ctrl). You can then use the arrow keys and the enter and escape keys to navigate.

    • Focus and Select Breadcrumbs (On Windows and Linux, ctrl+shift+.. On macOS, use cmd instead of ctrl). You can then use the arrow keys to navigate.

    Corresponding source code (ctrl+f for "register2").

    Go to settings>keyboard shortcuts
    then search for "Focus on File Explorer" and put any keybinding (e.g. ctrl+alt+f) as you like to go to file explorer and then you can navigate through the files using keyboard arrow keys.
