This will happen if you spell the name of the font wrong. It’s a duplicate, but I don’t know the number right now.

@NickITGuy In the future its important to attach your profiles.json file as well for debugging. I was able to reproduce the issue and the issue would happen if you made the "fontFace" tag anything but an actual font (Try leaving the font blank).

The solution is typing the name Fira Code correctly.
"fontFace" : "Fira Code",
Worked with no issues and Ligatures work as well.

Good Luck!
