unable to disable flake8

[LeanderK]

I want to disable flake8 for a project. I added "flake8.enabled" : false, to my setting.json. But vscode complains about this setting being unknown and also my project is still linted by flake8!

Hi! Can you check both your user and workspace settings and send anything over related to either of those? It could be a conflict between settings across different levels.

thank you for the quick response!

workspace setting:

{
    "python.analysis.extraPaths": [
        "./pyxadd"
    ],
    "python.analysis.typeCheckingMode": "basic",
    "python.analysis.autoImportCompletions": true,
    "files.exclude": {
        "demo/data/*": true
    },
    "flake8.enabled" : false,
}

flake8.enabled has warning: Unknown Configuration Setting. Autocomplete gives me completions for the others (args, cwd etc., but not enabled!)

I don't have any other flake8 settings set

@LeanderK Are you using stable or pre-release version? the enable setting is in pre-release.

[LeanderK]

ah, I just installed it from the marketplace. It's not the pre-relase.

This fixed it, thanks!
