Settings are forcefully repopulated in user settings.json even after deleting

[SudoCerb]

Hi,

I want to use this for some bespoke highlighting for a presentation, but I don't want it to highlight TODOs and FIXMEs or anything else. I want to define custom regex that highlights certain recognised regex match groups.

I have tried to delete the configuration twice, I have tried commenting it out, but every time I reload VSCode the settings return.

Please let me know what info you need to debug this?

Thanks!

I have this same issue. Every time I restart vscode "highlight.regexes" is populated with default values. I already use Todo Tree so I have to manually remove default settings
