WebStorm is removing unused imports by default. How can I turn this off?
e.g. if I comment out an imported element, the import statement is auto-deleted. When I comment that element back in, I need to manually insert the necessary import statement again.
Often auto-insert of import statements does not help since WebStorm does not recognize that the element has to be imported...
Unused imports are always removed when optimizing imports, so, if you like to keep them, don't run Code | Optimize imports
, and make sure that Optimize Imports is not enabled in Reformat Code dialog: Code | Show Reformat File dialog
, clear the Optimize Imports checkbox
