Prettier vscode json file indentation spacing issue

On save of any file, it is indenting with two tabs i.e 4 space in the beginning. Which rule is conflicting with prettier and .vscode settings?

Editor config settings are below:

root = true

[*]
charset = utf-8
end_of_line = lf
insert_final_newline = true
indent_style = space
indent_size = 2
trim_trailing_whitespace = true
max_line_length = 120

enter image description here

Trying to indent with 2 space, this is happening only
with json files and other scripts.

In my case, it was a .prettierrc.js file, so I removed the js and changed it to a .prettierrc file, and it worked fine.

just add this line in your .prettierrc file, here written in yaml style

overrides:
- files: '*.json'
  options:
    semi: true
    parser: 'json'

That's all folk's !

This was due to an extension: 'lonefy.vscode-js-css-html-formatter'.

You can add this rules for json files in your settings.json:

{
    "[json]": {
        "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode",
        "editor.tabSize": 2
    },
    "[jsonc]": {
        "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode",
        "editor.tabSize": 2
    }
}

And to be explicit, you can also add this one outside of the [json] block:

{
  "prettier.tabWidth": 2
}
