At the bottom of VS Code the prettier icon is a cross out icon when in a .sol file, but when I'm in other file types it's a checkmark.
Here's the error message I receive when I try to format the solidity file
I've read through some of the other post on similar problems and can't seem to get it to work by following those suggestions. I also got a message when trying to format saying prettier doesn't work with solidity, but I've used it for .sol files before.
