Ignoring multi line comments

[Nishant-Pall]

Is there a way to make prettier ignore commented lines inside the file that's supposed to be formatted?
I noticed this when I commented a whole function, and once I execute :Prettier, Prettier stripped out the indentation and basically pushed all of the lines above each other with no spaces to the left. Something like this.

Before calling :Prettier

//const reducer = (state = initialState, action) => {
    //switch (action.type) {
        //case BUY_CAKE:
            //return {
                //...state,
                //numOfCakes: state.numOfCakes - 1,
            //};
        //case BUY_ICECREAM:
            //return {
                //...state,
                //numOfIceCreams: state.numOfIceCreams - 1,
            //};
        //default:
            //return state;
    //}
//};

and after calling :Prettier

//const reducer = (state = initialState, action) => {
//switch (action.type) {
//case BUY_CAKE:
//return {
//...state,
//numOfCakes: state.numOfCakes - 1,
//};
//case BUY_ICECREAM:
//return {
//...state,
//numOfIceCreams: state.numOfIceCreams - 1,
//};
//default:
//return state;
//}
//};

It does work in vscode, but apparently doesnt in neovim
