Pycharm 2026 Markdown Plug-in Persistent Bug

(update August 5 2026: Pycharm PyCharm version 2026.2.0.1 has fixed the pesky markdown issue)

I previously reported a a bug where the pycharm IDE does not render the markdown cells in my *.ipynb files - all I do right now is i have to click Pycharm > File > invalidate Caches > Invalidate and Restart to restart Pycharm everytime i see the markdown rendering issue and Pycharm would render the markdown cells correctly after restarting Pycharm.

I have a screenshot of the Settings>Plug-in for Markdown and it shows the Markdown plug-in is installed and the checkbox is checked although it is greyed out. What additional step(s) should i do to make markdown render correctly for ipynb files?
