Problems Panel Sticky Errors From Closed Files

[Astrantia]

I'm not sure why this occurs sometimes and doesn't other times. The problem I have is the following:

1. Open any file which has warnings/errors showing up in Problems panel.
2. Notice warnings/errors show up just fine.
3. Close the file and/or open another file.
4. Notice the errors from the previous file are still persistent in the Problems panel.

I don't want to see the warnings/errors from the previously closed files. Is this a bug or is there a setting for this that I've been unable to find?

@mjbvz can you clarify is this is the expected behavior or a bug?
it has been like this since I started using visual studio code, so im not sure

[Astrantia]

@bpasero mjbvz doesn't want to answer so can you clarify if this the intended behavior or not? Persistent errors/warnings are bugging me very much, perhaps there's a configuration I overlooked to disable them?

Will follow up there

@mjbvz The issue you linked to me is specific to typescript, but I'm seeing the same problematic behavior with .json:

^ With having Settings closed.

This is also an issue with any language. I believe this is not related to tsc compilations, watches, and else.

Maybe this issue should be reopened? @mjbvz

Oh, I thought you pinged me because you were writing js/ts.

Is this for any file type? What if you disable all extensions?

@Astrantia Is it happening only for settings file or all files? For settings file what are the steps to reproduce... I am asking because I am not able to repro with settings file

[Astrantia]

@sandy081 This has been happening to me for all files, but I don't know how to reproduce it yet. It just happens spontaneously after a long usage of vscode.

@Astrantia It is hard to fix without able to repro. When it happens next time please check if there are any errors in the console (Use command Toggle Developer Tools).

Closing this as it can't be repro.
