I have the same issue. Some file types work, others don't.
File types that don't work are, e.g.:

I am also facing this issue (with
shfiles). Was anyone able to find the cause?Carltoffel commentedon Apr 26, 2023
Uninstall the plugin. ¯\(ツ)/¯
From what I can tell, it's not needed in newer versions of vim/neovim any more.
Maybe someone can confirm?

This is indeed the right solution for this issue. Uninstall filetype.nvim and set
vim.opt.filetype = "on"in your config.sandeep-ad commentedon May 2, 2023
I uninstalled the plugin and added filetype=on, now the behaviour is when I open the main.tf it does not show syntax highlighting. But when I do telecope search of the file and open it it shows all the nice highlighting etc. here are two different screen shots.

You do not need
vim.opt.filetype = "on". It is enabled by default.If you are using Neovim 0.8 or later you do not need to do anything to enable Lua based filetype detection. It is all enabled by default.
