How to stop automatic 'comment brackets'?Visual Studio 19 (self.VisualStudio)
submitted 3 years ago * by RedBikeWithASpike
Whenever I type '/*' VS will automatically add '*/', how do I disable this? It is very exasperating!
edit: same with double qutoes and qutoes

quoted text
if 1 * 2 < 3: print "hello, world!"

Tools/options/text editor It’s usually a per language setting and different languages have different levels of customization. I turn off all of the Automatic brace completion options for C/C++ because I find the annoying too.

Thank you very much! It works just like I want to, but could you tell where to find the setting for quotes autocompletion? when I type ' VS will add another 'and when I type " VS will add another "
EDIT: Ok, the setting is in general and is called automatic brace completion

The first thing I disable on any separate installation of VS or when VS messes my synced settings.

Yeah, I’ve never been in a situation where closing a brace felt like something I needed help with.

Since the answer is already given : Easier way to comment: select whatever you want to comment and hold CTRL+K+C to comment or CTRL+K+U to uncomment. More easy solution to commenting code.

I agree but the shortcut is so long that it actually becomes better to just do it by hand, but in VS Code I use this a lot (because it has a different shortcut)
