If you use VS Code, the search results and file explorer text use a proportional font because you cannot change it. Is a long standing bug and is annoying.

I wouldn't want monospace for the file explorer, since the benefits of monospace don't really matter for files, and proportional fonts take up less space. Being able to fit more text is also better when searching, and if you need to see stuff in the monospace font, you can open the file or open search in an editor.
