Troubleshooting
. If you encounter issues with extensions after applying the settings, verify that you have the recommended extensions installed or adjust the settings accordingly. . For OS-specific settings (like file paths), make sure to update them to match your operating system. . If you want project-specific settings rather than user-wide settings, consider placing the settings.json file in a .vscode folder inside your project. VS Code will then apply these settings only to that project.
