The new Markdown link validator code in Visual Studio Code, where should I enable the flag "markdown.validate.enabled": true. "

Question

While creating markdown files using VSCode, it is mentioned that we can enable the link validator to true. Reference: (https://vscode-westus.azurewebsites.net/docs/languages/markdown#:~:text=Link%20validation%20is%20off%20by%20default.%20To%20enable,links%20to%20headers%2C%20images%2C%20and%20other%20local%20files.)

Where should I set this value?

Answer 1

Go to your settings, the Gear icon/Settings or its shortcut Ctrl+, or via the Command Palette: Preferences: Open Settings (UI),

then search for markdown validate. You will see this option:

Markdown > Validate: Enabled
Enable all error reporting in Markdown files.

The default is disabled so you will have to enable it.
