Brace matching broken in razor files

Question

Started with Visual Studio 2022 v. 17.4.4 update. It was working fine before, but now I have wrong color for brace matching in *.js files and no brace matching at all.

Ignore the yellow color, that is from an extension and no, the extension is not the cause.

in *.cshtml files
