Code Analyzer for C#

There is a newer version: 10.2.0.105762

Why is this an issue?
Placing an if statement on the same line as the closing } from a preceding if, else, or
else if block can lead to confusion and potential errors. It may indicate a missing else statement or create ambiguity for
maintainers who might fail to understand that the two statements are unconnected.
The following code snippet is confusing:
if (condition1) {
  // ...
} if (condition2) {  // Noncompliant
  //...
}

Either the two conditions are unrelated and they should be visually separated:
if (condition1) {
  // ...
}

if (condition2) {
  //...
}

Or they were supposed to be exclusive and you should use else if instead:
if (condition1) {
  // ...
} else if (condition2) {
  //...
}
