I am going to need logs or something to figure out what is going on. Please provide clear repro steps, a sample repo, and output logs. Github issues aren’t for airing your complaints for use of a free product that volunteers create on their weekends and free time. If you don’t like it, uninstall it, send a pull request, or at a minimum provide a clear bug that we can use to figure out what is going on.

prettier.prettier-vscode is an alternate reality extension. (v3 test version) Did you remove it and installed esbenp.prettier-vscode instead ? In which case you would have to rename your default formatter
