Hi. Thx for Cursor.

I’m completely new to Cursor. I’ve migrated from VS Code, including `"workbench.colorTheme": "Tomorrow Night Blue"` in `/home/my-username-here/.config/Cursor/User/settings.json`. I’m on Manjaro x64 Linux, X11, GNOME, dark theme/preference. Most of Cursor seems to work fine.

However, Cursor is on its own adding the following to my workspace’s `.vscode/settings.json` (which doesn’t seem to make any obvious visual difference):

```json
"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
    "editor.background": "#000000",
    "terminal.background": "#000000"
  }

```

Any tips how to prevent the above change to .vscode/settins.json, please?  
Thx in advance.

Hey, are you sure this change is made by Cursor? It might be some extension because it’s not happening to me.
