      I have a default tab of 4 spaces. This is set for all file associations. My settings look exactly the same as 2 other colleagues using the same settings.

      When I tab in a text file, I am only getting 2 spaces.

          this setting means that if pressing the tab it jumps to the next tab stop which would
          be a multiple of 4 in your case.

          E.g pressing tab after “a” jumps to e, after “b” still jumps to e …after “d” jums to i

          abcdefghi
          a   e
          ab  e
          abc e
          abcd    i
          

          Cheers
