ESLint not working: VSCode warning: "ESLint is disabled since its execution has not been approved or denied yet"

Question

My VS Code has the ES Lint plugin installed and has, all of a sudden, stopped working. All I can see is a yellow squiggly at the first line of my files, which shows the message: "ESLint is disabled since its execution has not been approved or denied yet". Goes without saying, ESLint no more does what it should do. Does nothing in fact.

Though this isn't really work-stopper kind of issue, it sure is a bit annoying, having been used to coding with ESLint by my side always.

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

Found the solution. And it's rather simple. Thanks to this site, found the solution that fixed my problem. Gereon too has mentioned it rightly in his comment.

Turns out I had somehow disabled the extension in VSCode. All I had to do was enable it. There's an icon at the bottom right corner that says ESLint, and if disabled, it's shown with a red icon. All that I had to do was click on it, and allow it to be enabled everywhere in the dialog that was shown soon after.
