Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always frustrated when [...]
When I start VS Code and open a directory, it always prompts me to save settings.json.

I'm not sure if there have been any changes in the plugin's saving mechanism, but at least I didn't encounter this situation before enabling the plugin. I've tried a few ways to save, but none of them worked well.

Research direction

The issue mentions VS Code, settings.json, and the plugin's saving mechanism, but names no repository files or tests. Reproduce the prompt when opening a directory with the plugin enabled, then locate the settings-saving entry point. Done means the prompt no longer appears unexpectedly and the existing behavior remains intact.
