Disable Autocomplete on . (dot) in VSCode

Question

Example: trying to type return res.data

after typing the . it autocompletes to return resizeBy.

Have already turned off autocomplete on enter, and don't want to turn off editor.quickSuggestions completely as I still like the menu coming up (just not taking over too much).

Can't find very much about this online at all.

"editor.acceptSuggestionOnCommitCharacter": false, 

To open settings.json file:

1. cmd + , or ctrl +,
2. scroll down until you see Files: Associations
3. Click on edit in settings.json
4. paste the code above and save.
