WebStorm has started to ignore all Code Style settings
WebStorm 2025.3.3

As a long-time user of WebStorm and other JetBrains IDEs, I am increasingly disappointed by the growing number of regression and performance issues I am experiencing.
One that is currently driving me crazy is the sudden apparent loss of Code Styling. I have a comprehensive set of TypeScript Code Style settings which I have used for years without any issues. WebStorm now seems to insist on ignoring them entirely.
A full re-installation has had no effect. I have checked all the ‘meta’ settings that I think might have a bearing, again without success.
Am I missing something here, or is this a genuine problem with the application

Do you use Prettier or
.editorconfigin your project? They can override the IDE own code style preferences.Also, please could you share your code style preferences (
<IDE config dir>/codestyles/<scheme name>.xmlif you are using IDE-level scheme, or.idea\codeStyles\Project.xmlwhen using a project scheme) plus a.tsfile that reproduces the issue?I’ve experienced something similar before in WebStorm. In my case the issue was caused by an .editorconfig file overriding the IDE Code Style settings. WebStorm gives .editorconfig higher priority than the IDE configuration, so it can look like the Code Style settings are being ignored.
It might be worth checking whether there is an .editorconfig file in the project or any parent directory. You can also click the indentation indicator in the status bar to see if EditorConfig is active for the current file. If needed, you can temporarily disable EditorConfig support in Settings → Editor → Code Style to test whether that’s the cause.
