{% data reusables.code-scanning.codeql-action-version-ghes %}

Default setup overrides existing {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} setups by disabling any existing {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} workflows, and blocking any {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} analysis API uploads. This behavior stops you using {% data variables.product.prodname_actions %} minutes to run workflows for {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} advanced setup when only the results from default setup will be used. For more information about switching between advanced and default setups, see AUTOTITLE.

Optionally, if you are certain you no longer need the pre-existing workflow file, you can delete the file from your repository. For more information, see AUTOTITLE.
