Quick fix, add to project settings in .vscode/settings.json

"prettier.prettierPath": "./node_modules/prettier"

Having the same problem. If the project I'm working on has prettier installed as a dependency, the plugin fails an throws the same error as OP.

The fix suggested in #3019 (comment) solves the problem.

This does't work for me. I still get the same error.

I do have my project in a sub-directory, so I changed the path accordingly.

@szszoke Make sure you're changing prettierPath not prettierConfigPath, very similar names, I made that mistake a sec ago.

No worries! I just downgraded VS Code until this is resolved.

I tested again and it still doesn't work so I downgraded VS Code again.

[luchillo17]

Tested with a recent update, seems to be working after removing the prettierPath workaround.

[sosukesuzuki]

@luchillo17 VSCode v1.79.2?

[DylanSpOddball]

FWIW, I just tested with VSCode v1.79.2, this problem still occurred when not using the workaround.

[luchillo17]

Yes v1.79.2, just restarted my WSL2 instance to make sure it still worked, which version has #3030 in?
