I have the following config:

  "files.exclude": {
    "**/*.js": { "when": "$(basename).ts" },
    "**/*.js.map": true
  }

And it seems to be case-sensitive on Windows. Thus, I have class files like "MyClass.ts" compiled by tsc to myclass.js which breaks the file exclusion. This makes me have to resort to using "**/*.js": true, which is not ideal, but works for now.
