Updating ESP-IDF to newest version using VSCode

[enthusiastSR]

Hello,

I had previously installed esp-idf version 3.4 on linux using Get started menu from Espressif website
https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... requisites

Now I upgraded to the newest version of esp-idf: version 4.4. But when I tried to build using new version I had errors, which were because of "settings" of the old esp-idf installation.

So I uninstalled and deleted both vscode and esp-idf installation. I used the purge command to delete vscode completely. I also deleted .vscode and .config/code to remove the old settings completely. I also deleted .espressif and esp folders. I tried to delete everything concerning esp-idf and vscode.

Now, after reinstalling version 4.4, I again get the following error message:

I don't understand where else is this software and esp-idf extension hiding its settings? Please help.
