visual studio code displaying the line from the opening curly brace, then closing curly brace

Question

When I worked in visual studio code on linux, there was such a strip from one curly brace to another. I do not know what was responsible for its display, maybe some kind of extension. But after switching to Windows, I don't see them anymore, although I seem to have installed the same extensions. I do not know what it is called and how to return it, maybe someone knows?

Answer 1

This is the editor.guides.bracketPairs setting. The default value is false when it's not specified, so you must have set it to true in your user settings.json file or in your workspace .vscode/settings.json file. Find out where you set it and either set it to false or remove that line to get false as the default value.
