configuration does not apply in VS code?

Hello, I’m trying to use the VS Code extension and cannot get the configuration file to work.

I have this log information from VS code:

INFO: Loading user/workspace configuration for “c:\Users\me\dd\project-xyz\things\X.md” (not in a workspace folder). INFO: Linting for “c:\Users\me\dd\project-xyz\things\X.md” will be run “onType”. INFO: Loading user/workspace configuration for “c:\Users\me\dd\project-abc\docs\X.md” (not in a workspace folder). INFO: Linting for “c:\Users\me\dd\project-abc\docs\X.md” will be run “onType”

I have configuration files at location c:\Users\me\dd\project-xyz and c:\Users\me\dd\project-abc. I tried many formats:

.markdownlint.cjs

// @ts-check

"use strict";

module.exports = {
  "default": true,
  "MD003": "setext_with_atx",
  "MD009": false,
  "MD012": false
}

.markdownlint.json

{
  "MD003": "setext_with_atx",
  "MD009": false,
  "MD012": false
}

.markdownlint.yaml

MD003: setext_with_atx
MD009: false
MD012: false

VS code still shows me the warnings that I want to disable.

What am I doing wrong?

• That would lead to strange behavior when it went further up the tree than the project root for files in a project opened outside the project.
• Sopping at the first configuration file isn’t necessarily correct as there may be a parent file or two as well.
• User mode apps will not always have permission to read to the top of the file system and this extension should not do things that generate a security prompt.
