Prerequisites

  • I have written a descriptive issue title.
  • I have searched all issues to ensure it has not already been reported.
  • I have read the troubleshooting guide.
  • I am sure this issue is with the extension itself and does not reproduce in a standalone PowerShell instance.
  • I have verified that I am using the latest version of Visual Studio Code and the PowerShell extension.
  • If this is a security issue, I have read the security issue reporting guidance.

Summary

In some recent updates, you now get help from the engine with auto-complete. This is great as you no longer have to type CTRL+Space. While this is great for functions, parameters with validate sets and so on, it's pretty much destructive for typing standard strings.

It would be great if auto-fill for parameters where it's a string without autocomplete it would not suggest anything.

Showproblem

Of course workaround to it is - as soon as it shows up, press escape and continue typing. I can live with this if this is something not fixable.
