Still can't format user settings.json in combination with editor.defaultFormatter

See original GitHub issue

Summary

Reopening #911 moved from microsoft/vscode#95468 which was reopening microsoft/vscode#79038.

Prettier appears to not recognize settings.json as a formattable file type. According to Code maintainers it’s because the extension isn’t registering for the appropriate URI scheme: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/95468#issuecomment-617061736. How can I help?

VS Code Version:

1.45.0-insider

Prettier Extension Version:

4.4.0

OS and version:

Mac OS X 10.15.4 19E287

For others that might come here; this works when you switch settings.json to be associated with the jsonc format (I still got an error when it was considering it a JSON file). You can do this by adding settings.json to the files.associations array in… settings.json 🙂
