Hello here, seems like issue from below topic returns again: > [@Postman Requests Not Formatting Correctly](https://community.postman.com/t/postman-requests-not-formatting-correctly/51379): > > For some reason after an update this morning, all of my Postman tests are displaying without the formatting and beautification as expected. It makes it much harder to read and parse the tests. For a split second when I first start Postman, and when I first load a request I can see a flash of the correct coloring but then it goes away. Is there a setting I’m missing, or something new I need to do to get this back? What it Looks like What I Expect [2023-09-05\_11-06-38] … Using the last version of **Postman v11.1.2** (Desktop, Win10) I have no highlighting for syntax in Scripts (several versions before such issue was not actual): ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/getpostman/original/3X/4/0/4052154b1b28704154ae2383938f2a25cfd20162.png) ---

Hey @ixus 👋 Which OS is this on? Is there a reason for using the very old tests syntax and response body parsing you have here. Seems strange that you have that mixed with the newer `pm.environment.set()` syntax. 😅 ---

Version and OS are mentioned in the first message. No need to review my code, thanks. To avoid further lyrics, another example: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/getpostman/original/3X/4/0/4052154b1b28704154ae2383938f2a25cfd20162.png) ---

Same problem here, with Postman **v10.24.16** (Desktop, Win11) The issue emerged this morning unexpectedly, without any recent updates. However, yesterday, I performed some installations and uninstallations with version 11.0.6. By the end of the day, I had reverted to version 10, and the issue was not present at that time. ---

Hey folks, A fix for this issue has been released for version 11.x builds. You would need to update to the latest V11 version and then do a “Clear cache and Reload” from the main window menu options, for the change to take effect. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/getpostman/original/3X/e/c/ec326f55d589727eece0f8a8e6230c9859280de2.png) ---

You need to download/update to the latest version and then use the “Clear Cache and Reload” option. ---

Hello Danny, I have the latest version. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/getpostman/original/3X/9/a/9a8cd854547e3dc12c51a6fddf901ce551547473.png) I clicked on "Clear Cache and Reload” several times (for 40 minutes), and it didn’t seem to help the syntax highlighting problem. It finally worked 2 minutes ago. Thank you! ---
