VSCODE seems to be inserting spaces everywhere in my html code. I checked the settings and it's the following which is causing it: "editor.formatOnSave": true
Example:
How do I configure this to stop inserting spaces?

Solved my issue!

Solved the issue for me as well. In my case was the "Prettier - Code formatter" extension.

solved my issue too, it was the same extension of Alejandro that was giving me headaches
When saving, Visual Studio inserted a lot of spaces. This happened after an update of Visual Studio. This problem was because of an extension called Bracket Pair Colorizer. What I did was, uninstall and reinstall, and that solved the problem. I suggest to check all your extensions. It could be one of them.

I disabled the option of HTML formatting and no more space when saving files.
Settings > Extensions > HTML > Format: Enable
Enable/disable default HTML formatter.

Now vscode has option
"editor.formatOnSaveMode": "modificationsIfAvailable"
It will not reformat whole file on save, modified content will be formatted (given source control is present)

What was the case with me is that I had the option Editor: Format on save mode to be set to file, this in combination with format on save would mean VS Code will try to format the entire file, resulting in spaces as defined in the formatter.
Change this to be modifictions, and VS Code will only save the lines you have made changes in.
