Need Help: DRC Rule Error After Removing severity from the Design Rule – Rules Disappeared

I’m currently facing an issue in KiCad’s Design Rule Editor and would really appreciate your help.

After completing my PCB design, I ran the DRC check. I had added a custom rule earlier that included a severity line (e.g., severity error). After running the check, I removed just the severity line from the rule, thinking it was optional.

However, after that, the DRC editor started throwing syntax errors such as:

  • Unrecognized item 'rule'. Expected constraint, condition, or disallow.
  • Missing ')'

also i cant run DRC

There are syntax errors, last two rules are not closed they should end with closing brackets and every rule name should be inside inverted commas. Kindly check the attached image and update your syntax.

Thanks for pointing that out. I’ve already corrected the syntax
