Spelling Mistakes are ignored

[bastiankap]

I use the VS-Code plug-In (v13.1.0) to spell check a LaTeX file. For some reason the plug-in does not seem to find any spelling mistakes. For example, if I type: "Why don't you find a obvious mistak." it tells me that "a" should be "an" and that the period should be a question mark, but it does not flag the fact that I misspelled "mistake". When I first started using the plug-in, spell checking worked and I suspect, that I might have disabled spell checking at some point, when I told it to ignore a specific error. I tried reinstalling the plug in multiple times and I checkt the settings in the setup.json file but I can't find the problem.
If you need more specific information please let me know, I am pretty new to all of this. Thanks in advance for your help!

I found the problem. The rules I deactivated were not defined in the setup.json but in an external file in the .vscode folder. Once I deleted this file and reinstalled LTeX, it worked again.
