Hi @dojyorin. Thanks for taking the time to submit a report.

In preparation for the 1.0.0 release, some significant changes were made to Arduino CLI in order to improve the tool and its maintainability. One of these changes was dropping support for the alternative configuration file data formats (https://github.com/arduino/arduino-cli/pull/2587). YAML is now the only supported data format.

So please convert the file to YAML format, with the appropriate file extension for that format: .yml or .yaml. After that, the configuration file should once more be recognized by Arduino CLI.

This breaking change is documented in the migration guide here:

https://arduino.github.io/arduino-cli/dev/UPGRADING/#configuration-file-now-supports-only-yaml-format

You might want to review the rest of the guide to check whether you are affected by any of the other changes.
