bought the subscription, but it has taken a whole day just to figure out code editor,
anyway this is what is did…
type .json on the search bar and you will get an option
Workbench › Settings: Use Split JSON

Controls whether to use the split JSON editor when editing settings as JSON.
hope it help…
now trying to figure out how to have the output clean without RUN ,DONE

then change python -u to python 3. it took me awhile to figure it out. I even uninstalled it and reinstall but couldn’t find those 3 dots. I guess he was using an older version.

How do i find this file?.. when i go to settings and search “code-runner.exe” nothing at all comes up… i installed it… how are you guys finding this mysterious json file that has the executorMap in it?

EDIT: So this is crazy… I kept going back to the extension tab and under the Code-Runner app, you see the gear icon. I would choose extension settings (as various git hub threads referred to that), but nothing would show up in the settings area… so I uninstalled Code-Runner for the heck of it… THEN, I installed it again, BUT, first there was an option to choose older versions… I figured well Mosh did this in 2018, so I chose a version of Code-Runner that was two years old… I installed, THEN chose gear icon and BOOM, the json garbage popped up and I successfully edited the executor map trash… AMAZING… I wonder if I can get a job yet… :smiley:

but if you use a dash code-runner.exe you should see the settings.json
