I have installed the Clang-Format extension and the C/C++ extension. My code does format according to the .clang-format file (according to its content as it was downloaded from the Clang-Format extension), but editing it does not change the actual formatting. The clang-format.exe file is from the C/C++ extension.
Here is the .clang-format file like it is in the places I have edited it.

Here is the relevant json:
The "C_Cpp.clang_format..." lines seem to have no effect when I comment them out. Like I said, formatting will still happen, just not the way I would like.
Other extensions I use are "Project Templates" and "Bracket Pair Colorizer 2".
Also, formatting happens only when I save. "ctrl + alt + F" does nothing.
