If you use the SFTP extension you can do this for refreshing the SFTP:EXPLORER list (tested on Windows with VSC 1.40.2):

File => Preferences => Keyboard Shortcuts => Search for: refresh

Then you have to find "Refresh / sftp.remoteExplorer.refresh" in the result list. Click the entry, then click the plus sign before the entry, then press your desired shortcut and hit "enter". I took "Ctrl + Alt + F5" because this has not been used for other commands already.
