Disable ligatures in Visual Studio

Question

I found this question that is about enabling ligatures in Visual Studio, which appears to be automatic.

However, I don't like ligatures, so I was wondering if it is possible to disable them. I can't find anything in VS2017 or VS2019.

Answer 1

I also want to disable font ligatures in VS2017 today, then I found this link in MSDN community site. They say:

Currently, Visual Studio doesn’t have the ability to disable font ligatures in the editor, so the only option you currently have available is to chose a font that doesn’t provide ligatures.

I think they are foolish about this.

Answer 2

I ran into that issue in VS2022 aswell when tried to install Jetbrains Mono font. But it occured that jetbrains provides same font without ligatures, it's name is followed by 'NL'
