I need to restart Visual Studio Code several times a day because the Prettier formatter extension (esbenp.prettier-vscode) throws errors. It is as if the extension gets confused after numerous successful formats. Once the editor has been re-opened, the formatting works again, as expected. Any ideas what could be causing this?

I see the below in the output window:

["DEBUG" - 6:17:02 AM] Using bundled version of prettier.

Please let me know what information I should supply to elaborate with.
