Why does Prettier not format code in VS Code?

In my Nuxt application where ESlint and Prettier are installed and enabled, I switched to Visual Studio Code.

When I open a .vue file and press CMD+ Shift + P and choose Format Document, my file does not get formatted at all.

My .prettierrc settings:

{
  "tabWidth": 2,
  "semi": false,
  "singleQuote": true
}

I have so many source code lines, so I cannot format them manually. What am I doing wrong?

How I've sorted it after having super huge frustrations with Prettier stopping working in VSCode.

  1. Select VS Code -> View -> Command Palette, and type: Format Document With
  2. Then Configure Default Formatter... and then choose Prettier - Code formatter.

This sorted the problem for me magically.

Depending on your case this might help you...

If doing what @Simin Maleki mentioned does not solve it for you, there is a chance that your default formatter is not set:

File > Preferences > Settings > Search for "default formatter" 

Make sure your Editor: Default Formatter field is not null but rather esbenp.prettier-vscode and that all the languages below are ticked. This fixed my issue.

Also make sure that your format on save is enabled:

Prettier could also format your files on save.

However, installing and enabling does not result in working.

You have to check "format on Save" in VSCode: Setting >> User >> Text Editor >> Formatting
