why is prettier broken on vs code?

I have the vs code plugin installed, I have prettier included as a dev dependency in my project, and my settings.json has these lines.

{
  "[typescript]": {
      "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode"
  },
  "[typescriptreact]": {
      "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode"
  },
}

{
  "[typescript]": {
      "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode"
  },
  "[typescriptreact]": {
      "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode"
  },
}

then I get this message Extension 'Prettier - Code formatter' is configured as formatter but it cannot format 'TypeScript React'-files

Thank you for replying. I am seeing prettier as being enabled. How would I check if it's disabled specifically for typescript
