'Disable tooltip hint in Visual Studio Code

How can I disable the default tooltip hint message in VSCode? It's annoying sometimes.

Solution 1:^[1]

"editor.hover.enabled": false,

is your bulletproof solution. Then you can use CTLR + K, CTLR + I.

Solution 2:^[2]

To hide those hints you can just add "editor.parameterHints": false to your settings.json. Found the answer in here.

Solution 3:^[3]

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.

Solution 4:^[4]

On version 1.27.2, I found that only this parameter disabled all the tooltips: "editor.hover.enabled": false.

Solution 5:^[5]

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"

Solution 6:^[6]

Simple way that no one here has mentioned: Code ? Preferences ? Settings. Search for "hover". Uncheck the checkbox where it says "Editor > Hover: Enabled".

Solution 7:^[7]

Cntrl + shift + P -> Prefences: Open Settings (JSON)

"editor.parameterHints": false,
"editor.hover.enabled": false

i had to do both of these.

Solution 8:^[8]

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!
what JSON looks like

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.

Solution 9:^[9]

for Versions 1.31+ this one line did it for me:

"editor.parameterHints.enabled": false

Solution 10:^[10]

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.
