How to stop VS code from automatically entering parameters into my callback function (stop inserting suggestions on a keypress)? - visual-studio-code

I am using VS Code version 1.25.1. This behaviour wasn't in any of the previous version and I'm not able to find the setting in settings.json to help me out. I couldn't find a post on this issue so I'm posting this.
When I press ,
This behaviour is very irritating and unproductive and I was wondering how can I edit my settings.json to disable this.
Edit
Note: I am using default settings.

"editor.acceptSuggestionOnCommitCharacter": false
will remove the , as a completion (commit) character. You can still use Tab or Enter to apply the highlighted suggestion.

DOCTYPE Emmet shortcut stopped working VS Code [duplicate]

Every other snippet is working, but !+tab is not.
! snippet is not working
other snippet is working
I am using Visual Studio Code. I'm using 1.69.0. It was working before, but I wanted to add net html file, named that new.html, because I had index.html already. After that this script stopped working on every html file, but other scripts like "a", "div" etc. is working.
The v1.69.2 recovery release is out now. Emmet in html is working as it should for me now.
Looks like it will be in the Recovery Release, see https://github.com/issues?q=is%3Aissue+label%3Acandidate+repo%3Amicrosoft%2Fvscode+repo%3Amicrosoft%2Fvscode-internalbacklog+repo%3Amicrosoft%2Fvscode-remote-release+milestone%3A%22June+2022+Recovery+2%22+.
Don't know when the recovery release to Stable - presumably v1.69.2 - will be released. The .1 release is out and the fix is not in it.
It has been fixed though, see https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/154375, and should be in the Insiders Build tomorrow (07/13/2022).
Testing the latest Insiders: ! is working. As is ul>li*3 type expansions (although that never stopped working for me - but it has been reported elsewhere). Should be in the v1.69.2 release out soon.
It is a known issue with the v1.69 release, see html emmet suggestion not automatically display or https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/154517 for example. Lots of issues on github on ! and * not working.
So the emmet snippet will not appear automatically when you type !, but you can press Ctrl/Cmd+Space (which is the command Trigger Suggest) to make it appear and select normally.
Try Ctrl/Cmd+Space for anything emmet-related nnnnnot working in vscode v1.69.
You could also go back to v1.68 to solve the issue.
Try to write "doc" instead of "!". "doc" works for me.
On Windows 10, this worked for me:
Go to "Settings" and type "emmet.trigger" in the search
A checkbox for "Emmet: Trigger Expansion On Tab" will appear
Check the checkbox for allowing Emmet to trigger expansion on tab
After I did that, it worked just fine for !+TAB and any type of mulitpliers (i.e. li*4+TAB).
You need to check this option or put "emmet.triggerExpansionOnTab": true in settings.json to use the emmet abbreviation pressing TAB. I realized this ones what is not working:
!, lorem, >, and .
Examples of use: ul>li, li3, ul>li*3
None of them shows the preview of the emmet, and you can't use them pressing TAB without enabling the option that I sayed above, and even checking the option you won't be able to see the previews, you'll need to know them by yourself and press the TAB even though nothing showing that it's a emmet abbreviation.
You can use CTRL + SPACE too.

Version 21H2
VSCODE Version 1.69.0
I had the same issue with the ! not working. I found another shortcut that does the same thing: type html:5, and press enter.
Looks like a bug, I have the same problem with 1.69.1, the VSC team is aware and fixing it. Should be fixed with the next release soon.
Meanwhile, you can use either HTML:5 or doc
meanwhile use "HTML:5"
enter image description here
or use "doc"
enter image description here
While #Mark's answer works, another work around would be to use the html:5 snippet which still works as expected in v1.69
Yes, I am facing this issue too since the latest update.
Somehow the solution I have got is :
You can check the box “Emmet: Use Inline Completions”
In settings by typing “emmet” in the setting’s search.
You can see the suggestion now and choose it by pressing the tab.
This is the solution I have got till now but hoping that we could have the previous version back.

VS Code Autocomplete Doesn't show after using it

it's a simple problem that has been bothering me for a long time, when I use autocomplete, the text I write after it becomes highlighted and suggestions don't show up anymore, does anyone know how to disable it?

The Solution is to go to VS Code Settings and disable following setting:
"editor.suggest.snippetsPreventQuickSuggestions": false // enables suggestions

why there is no selection when I click F5 to run program in vscode

In the begin, for example, I'd like to run program by click F5, and there is a selection box on the top of vscode. However, maybe I click some errorly, it debug directly, and no selection here, and the terminal shows (base) in the front of result, why and how to correct to original setting?
One way to reset VS settings as follows:
Note: Please use save as to backup settings.json in case you have something that you may need to restore later.
DO NOT DELETE ANYTHING FROM YOUR "defaultSettings.json"
These instructions are only for clearing out everything except {
} within your user settings.json:
The easiest way to reset VS Code
back to the default settings is to clear your user settings.json file
contents in the Settings editor. Delete everything between the two
curly braces, save the file, and VS Code will go back to using the
default values.How can I reset my user settings?

"editor.parameterHints.enabled:: false
After disabling, you can manually show the parameter hints at the current location using the Trigger parameter hints command
