Description

It only works at the workspace level. If it can't work at the workspace folder level it should have its scope changed in the package.json.

Research direction

Start by inspecting package.json for the declared scope of C_Cpp.intelliSenseEngine and reproduce the setting behavior at workspace and workspace-folder levels. Done means the folder-level setting either disables IntelliSense as expected or has its scope corrected in package.json.
