perhaps In your Computer the Default application for opening .json files is VS2017, thus it is popping up. Try changing the default for .json to a text editor.

Refer to #1460

Having a .json file for settings is not really user friendly, this is a Windows tool not Linux.

Others: this is currently by design. Get a better JSON editor if you don’t want it to launch VS.
