Additional context

I want to render the .tex files as .png The following command do it very well with GhostScript and ImageMagick installed.

pdflatex -shell-escape file.tex

However, when I try do the same with Magic comments the build get's stuck. But when I remove the % !TEX options = -shell-escape "%DOC%" comment and reload vs code the pdf is generated using pdflatex. If I am doing something wrong please help me. Sorry and Thank you.
