PowerShell extension settings placed in `'~\AppData\Roaming\Code\User\settings.json'` dont work at all

[RalfReddings]

Prerequisites

• I have written a descriptive issue title.
• I have searched all open and closed issues to ensure it has not already been reported.
• I have read the troubleshooting guide.
• I am sure this issue is with the extension itself and does not reproduce in a standalone PowerShell instance.
• I have verified that I am using the latest version of Visual Studio Code and the PowerShell extension.
• If this is a security issue, I have read the security issue reporting guidance.

Summary

I am trying to set up my PowerShell development environment to my liking by using the various PowerShell settings found in the defaultSetting.json file in my settings.json file. But none of them are working at all. I have

• Uninstalled the extension, then reinstalled it
• Uninstalled Code, then reinstalled it
• Cleared out all my settings and other extensions etc

I have no other idea what is going on, I can only assume this is a bug.

I have provided a gif below to demonstrate this issue better:

Thanks @RalfReddings these settings are controlled by VSCode, so you will need to open an issue in their repo, unfortunately we are having difficulty reproducing this issue... thanks for the repro steps
