Very disturbing pop up in Visual Studio Code - visual-studio-code

I don't know why, but since yesterday I have this kind of pop-up that follows my cursor when I write my code, it's SO disturbing! Does anyone know how to turn this stuff off? I had to accidentally activate it with a keyboard shortcut but no idea which one.

Open your settings, search for editor.parameterHints.enabled and untick the setting. Alternatively, in settings.json, add "editor.parameterHints.enabled": false (or set the key to false if it exists already).
You can still bring up the hints on demand using Ctrl+Shift+Space.

restoring vscode settings to default

In vscode, there is an option to chose which language I'm going to use when I make a new file. I accidentally clicked do not show for this setting/UI but I want it back. I tried googling it but I can't find any solutions. Is this is even changeable?
If you are talking about this feature, it can be re-enabled by changing the value of Workbench > Editor > Untitled: Hint (workbench.editor.untitled.hint) in the settings.
But without that feature you can still change language mode by clicking the button at the bottom right of the window.

VS Code disable Find in section by default

I'm having some trouble with my VS Code Find behavior. Whenever I hit CTRL + F it gives me the Find window, but the Find in section is active (attached screenshot) as a default, which in NOT what I want. It's really annoying to click there to disable this.
Thank you.
Press CTRL+< to open the settings editor, then look for autoFindInSelection. Likely, it is set to always so change it to never.

How can I set the default option in Visual Studio Code's Quick Open View?

Up until now I've been using Ctrl+Q to trigger View: Quick Open View. The first option was Explorer, so if I Ctrl+Shift+F to search something I return the Explorer back to the sidebar by Ctrl+Q only.
Today, the first option changed and I have no idea why. It's set to an extension's sidebar view.
If I disable it the first option becomes Bookmarks. How can I tell VS Code I want Explorer to be the first option, like it's always been?
See https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/90232
It was a regression in v1.42 that is due to be fixed in the v1.42.1 recovery update.

Tab key is not working in visual studio code

Tab key is not working for abbreviation in visual studio code.I have tried lot.How can I fix the problem?I am frustrated.Thinking of using Bracket instead of visual studio code.
In my case
Using (Ctrl + M) return Tab button to its normal working status.
I think you may be asking about this setting:
// Insert snippets when their prefix matches. Works best when
'quickSuggestions' aren't enabled.
"editor.tabCompletion": true,
That is set to false by default, change it to true.
Don't change any keyboard shortcut or something else. You should change the language mod right bottom on the editor. It was selected javascript by default. You should change with Javascript React after that this changes all emmets suggestions is working.
For Visual Studio code version 1.33, go to File > Preferences > Settings Search for tabcompletion and by default it is off, select on, that is it, you are done.
Pressing Ctrl+M did not disable the mode for me, however the right side of the bar along the bottom of vs-code shows Tab Moves Focus as enabled, which you can click to disable.

VSCode: How to turn off auto select in File Explorer when changing window tabs?

In VSCode, if I have an editor window tab open and I click anywhere in that editor window, the selected file in the File Explorer changes to the file being edited. I would like to prevent that behavior. This is possible in Visual Studio, but I can't seem to find a similar setting in the preferences file of VSCode.
Can anyone provide some suggestions?
This has been added, see https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/14745.
Configuration is "explorer.autoReveal": false
You can't, at least not today. The only thing you can do, is keeping the scroll position when switching tabs. See this answer for the setting: VSCode prevent file Explorer from jumping
