    You're first going to have to describe what you mean by "autocorrect". If you're talking about a spell check (which is what I think of when I hear "autocorrect") there's no such thing in Visual Studio. Visual Studio has Intellisense, which will suggest names of existing objects in your code to make things easier and faster to type.

      yes, what i mean is intellisense... it always auto correcting my typing e.g. if i wanna create new function named "Move", when i wanna type: public void Move it replacing "Move" with the existed function this is very annoying in case you wanna create, say, 20 functions please help. i tried to configure it out but i got nothing in result.

        I never have a problem with it because I would type "Move" and then hit Esc to get Intellisense to go away. I'm not one for disabling Intellisense because it makes typing code so much faster. But, a simple Google would have told you exactly what you wanted to know. "Visual Studio disable intellisense[^]"

          it's not what i want. what i want is like VS 2015; as far as i remember, it does suggest things as you type, but it didn't force you to use it in this case, when i type: public void Move ( button or space button> it will gives this as the result: public void OnAnimatorMove() in fact, i just wanna type: public void Move() { //blablabla the point is, the intellisense can suggest me, but if i don't wanna use its suggestions, don't replace what i typed with something i didn't choose

            It's STILL not forcing you to use it. Type "Move" hit Esc, hit "(". Done. YOU are going to have to play with the Intellisense options under Tools/Options/Text Editor to find a setup that works for YOU.

              you don't get it. as far as i remember, in VS 2008 / 2015 when i type, for example, "Move" and the suggestion will pop up (like Moveblablabla, etc) BUT if i continuing type "(" (WITHOUT have to press Esc) it will become: Move( and not Moveblablabla() //this is when i say, it force you use its suggestion do you get it now?

                Oh I get it. I've understood for a while now. Every version of VS with Intellisense has behaved the way you're describing, though, each language editor has it's options set differently from the others by default. I already told you what you're going to have to do. Tools/Options/Text Editor/... and start exploring the options.

                    i did that on the first place. but looks like there's no option for that. [screenshot] the option is either turn off the intellisense or using it (with the conditions i'vementioned), afaik. i really have to get rid of this intellisense b*llsh*t!! it really p*sses me off!!

                            So go and look at the options and see if there is one, or some combination, that does what you want.

                                  and do you even noticed that i told you multiple times too that i did that and there's no result?? i told you that i've searched through "Text Editor" or whatsoever and it still didn't work!! do you even read before you reply?? if there's something i missed, just point it out. coz i've search like almost all the possible options in Options and i just like completely clueless on this intellisense bullsh*t

                                    In your screenshot, what does it say under "statement completion"? :rolleyes: There's also a heading called "advanced", for those who dare venture there, and a heading that says "code style" - the latter would let you specify how you want it to behave in detail. If it still bothers you, then use the "txt" file extension for your source-code; it will still compile perfectly, you'll just miss al modern support of having an intelligent IDE.

                                          Yes. Do you explore, experiment, and research before begging someone to give you the answer, even an answer that doesn't exist?
