title: VS Code throws me to settings.json when trying to compile c++ code
body: <p>I can't compile any c++ code in VS Code. Whenever I try, it throws me to the settings.json file, where I see this:</p>
  <pre><code>{
  &quot;python.defaultInterpreterPath&quot;: &quot;C:\\Users\\Pavel Sankin\\AppData\\Local\\Microsoft\\WindowsApps\\python.exe&quot;,
  &quot;python.pythonPath&quot;: &quot;C:\\Users\\Pavel Sankin\\Anaconda3&quot;
  }
  </code></pre>
  <p>and nothing else. I did install the standard C/C++ extension and tried checking out the official website for help, but there seem to be other things there. VS Code doesn't throw any errors, it just opens this file whenever I try to compile any piece of C++ code.</p>
  <p>Any help will be much appreciated.</p>
