State: closed
Merged: Yes


Summary of the Pull Request

The settings.json schema had "default"s for some boolean settings set as quoted strings ("true" / "false"), so I removed the quotes.

Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

VSCode autocompletes the default value when you select the setting in intellisense, so it autocompleted a string which caused a schema error. Booleans should be JSON booleans, not quoted.
