Visual Studio Code's configuration settings are scope-aware and related to workspaces:
- If a VS Code workspace is open, the VS Code settings affect the VS Code Workspace Settings.
- If there is no VS Code workspace open, the configuration settings affect the User Settings. User Settings act as a fallback if the current workspace does not override them.
You can access these settings from File > Preferences > Settings > Extensions > nRF Connect.
Depending on whether you have a VS Code workspace set up, either one or both of these settings can specify the values for nRF Connect SDK and Toolchain versions. See the following section for more information.
