I've been trying to disable suggestions in VSC by changing the following in settings.json, but it hasnt works for me. What am I doing wrong?
// OPTIONAL WORD WRAPPING
// Controls if lines should wrap. The lines will wrap at min(editor.wrappingColumn, viewportWidthInColumns).
"editor.wordWrap": "off",
// Controls the indentation of wrapped lines. Can be one of 'none', 'same' or 'indent'.
"editor.wrappingIndent": "none",
// TURN OFF AUTOCOMPLETION
// Controls if quick suggestions should show up or not while typing
"editor.quickSuggestions": false,
// Controls the delay in ms after which quick suggestions will show up
"editor.quickSuggestionsDelay": 90,
// Enables parameter hints
"editor.parameterHints": false,
// Controls if the editor should automatically close brackets after opening them
"editor.autoClosingBrackets": false,
// Controls if the editor should automatically format the line after typing
"editor.formatOnType": false,
// Controls if suggestions should automatically show up when typing trigger characters
"editor.suggestOnTriggerCharacters": false,
// Controls if suggestions should be accepted 'Enter' - in addition to 'Tab'. Helps to avoid ambiguity between inserting new lines or accepting suggestions.
"editor.acceptSuggestionOnEnter": "off"
}```
I just copy pasted your settings into my settings.json file and hit save. It worked for me, no more intellisense. Did you edit the file with VS Code and then hit "save" ? If it didn't work, then maybe try reinstalling vs code and try again. My bet is that you didn't save. Also, I opened the file by first going into settings and then clicking on one of the selections that said "edit in settings.json." Another thing that I had to do was after I hit save on the settings.json I also had to go back into settings and manually uncheck all of these options:
search for "suggestions"
Try adding this line to settings.json. Not a permanent fix, but can act as a temporary one.
The line:
"editor.suggestOnTriggerCharacters": false

How can I disable the default tooltip hint message in VSCode? It's annoying sometimes.
editor.hover.enabled: false in settings.json to Tooltip
Click on Edit in settings.json
There are two panes
Default User Settings
"editor.quickSuggestions": {
"other": false,
"comments": false,
"strings": false
}
User Settings
"editor.parameterHints.enabled": false,
"editor.suggest.snippetsPreventQuickSuggestions": false,
"html.suggest.html5": false,

This also can be done UI.

"editor.suggest.snippetsPreventQuickSuggestions": false,
"html.suggest.html5": false,
Update your suggest options and save.

You will find settings.json

Setting to turn off ALL popups

To hide those hints you can just add "editor.parameterHints": false to your settings.json. Found the answer in here.
I find using a larger value for Editor > Hover: Delay (search for "delay" in the settings search bar) does the trick for me. Its default is 300ms. This doesn't address the desire to actually eliminate the tooltips, but having them only appear after, say, 2 seconds, reduces the visual clutter quite a bit for me.
On version 1.27.2, I found that only this parameter disabled all the tooltips: "editor.hover.enabled": false.
I'm using Visual Studio Code v1.63.0 and in Settings I searched for "hover" and, among other things, found "Editor > Hover: Delay" and "Editor > Hover: Enabled". Unchecking the latter will disable the hover. However, I personally find them useful but they're displayed too quickly so I increased ""Editor > Hover: Delay" from "300" to "5000"
Simple way that no one here has mentioned: Code → Preferences → Settings. Search for "hover". Uncheck the checkbox where it says "Editor > Hover: Enabled".
Cntrl + shift + P -> Prefences: Open Settings (JSON)
"editor.parameterHints": false,
"editor.hover.enabled": false
i had to do both of these.
Here's the noob version, assuming you know little about VS Code (like me).
Windows.
VS Code version: 1.37.1
While in VS Code:
press F1 then type "settings" or "preferences" - then click "Preferences: Open User Settings"
- or -
from top menu: File>Preferences>Settings
- or -
hotkey: ctrl+,
in the settings pane, type "hover" (no need to press "enter")
the settings pane should display the hover settings immediately
Uncheck "Editor › Hover: Enabled"
hover disable
Rockstar Version: edit the JSON like a balla
F1 then type "Open Settings (JSON)"
-or-
navigate to settings JSON file and open in VS Code
https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/getstarted/settings#_settings-file-locations
Add this to JSON file (within curly braces, INCLUDE quotes): "editor.hover.enabled": false
Note: each line needs a comma after it. If you add to top, put a comma after this line. If you add to bottom, add a comma after the previous line.
Don't forget to save!

If you're new to coding, those tooltips can come in handy. You may want instead to just DELAY their appearance as Logan suggested.

Note: I appreciate others have posted almost the EXACT same answer but, as I mentioned, this is the NOOB version that assumes the user has little/no experience with VS Code.
for Versions 1.31+ this one line did it for me:
"editor.parameterHints.enabled": false
Go to the settings gear wheel in the bottom left hand corner, then go to Settings and search "hover". Uncheck the "Controls whether the hover is shown" box.
Arrrg!!!
Hope this helps others. Running with v1.72.1. For the life of me was trying all the different settings, options, suggesting and couldn't get the tooltip help disabled... Coffee might have been my solution, finally noticed in the tooltip window there is an 'x' in the upper right corner for a close, clicking it. WOW! It worked and seems to have persisted my desire to dismiss them. I wanted them gone.... Perfect!!! Thinking about it, don't see a way to get them back if someone might actually want them back. VS Code is nice for a lot of stuff, but pretty bad for some of it's design and usability...
If you are not looking for disable and as mentioned by user: Darrell Brogdon above, if you want to delay the hover time of tooltip as solution then simply add the below line in user settings with your desired time value.
replace value 3000 as per your need.
Note: hover settings are moved in Online Services Settings in newer versions, hence you might not be able to find it with search 'hover' in user settings.
// modify in Preferences --> Settings or settings.json
"editor.hover.delay": 3000,

Quick question, I seem to be unable to guess the name of this "info box" properly, so google won't find me the right solution to disable this.
Its called Intellisense in VSCode terms and you can configure it accordingly with these settings in you settings.json files
Go to File -> Preferences -> Settings
Search and click on "Edit in settings.json"
// Controls if quick suggestions should show up or not while typing
"editor.quickSuggestions": false,
// Enables parameter hints
"editor.parameterHints": false,
// Controls if suggestions should automatically show up when typing trigger characters
"editor.suggestOnTriggerCharacters": false,
If you want to access these features even after disabling these, you can use the keyboard shortcuts.
CTRL+SPACE - Trigger Suggestions
CTRL+SHIFT+SPACE - Trigger Parameter Hitns
Haven't figured out how to do this yet after multiple web and Settings searches, and not finding this asked already here.
I tried "editor.hover": false, but it just puts a green squiggly underline under it saying it's an unknown configuration setting.
If I make a function call in say a .php file, then inadvertently hover over it, it pops up an un-called-for box obscuring what I'm reading or blocking what I meant to click.
I'd like to be able to stop this and only have it activate on-demand with a keyboard shortcut, but without disabling other features.
The only setting that works on version 1.29.1 is:
"editor.hover.enabled": false,
This is the only combination that worked for me:
"editor.parameterHints": false,
"editor.hover": false,
"editor.quickSuggestions": false,
