Solution of unchecking comment at first column is partially working  because it works for line comments  but not block comments   So  with lines like      first line    second line              or     line 1    line 2    line 3       they are indented with  Auto reformat   but lines like      first line    second line              the identation will not be fixed   So you should    add   or    before each line of comments then uncheck Keep when reformatting - gt  comment at first column and Auto reformat
