Missing Gradle project configuration file: .settings/org.eclipse.buildship.core.prefs while import.gradle is disabled

I see error "Missing Gradle project configuration file: .settings/org.eclipse.buildship.core.prefs" of my maven project despite "java.import.gradle.enabled": false is in my .vscode/settongs.json.

There is still gradlew and build.gradle files, but they are not intended to be used for building java project.

Environment

• Operating System: rhel 7
• JDK version: 8
• Visual Studio Code version: 1.55
• Java extension version: 0.76.0

BTW I also see such errors in log:

Reproduisez l’erreur avec java.import.gradle.enabled défini sur false, tout en laissant gradlew et build.gradle dans le projet. Commencez par suivre le chemin d’importation de Gradle et de synchronisation de Buildship indiqué dans la stack trace, puis vérifiez que l’avertissement concernant l’absence de .settings/org.eclipse.buildship.core.prefs et l’erreur de synchronisation ne se produisent plus lorsque l’importation de Gradle est désactivée.
