 ### Option 2: Associating HTMLHint extension with your file type
 
-If your file type already has an associated language service other than "html", and you'd like HTMLHint to process those file types, you will need to associate the HTMLHint extension with that language service. Add the following to your VS Code [settings](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/getstarted/settings), replacing `"mylang"` with your language service. For example, if you want HTMLHint to process `.twig` files, you would use `"twig"`. Note that with this configuration, **you need to open an html file first** to activate the HTMLHint extension. Otherwise, you won't see any linter errors, (the extension is hard-coded to activate when the html language service activates).
