      I have used Notepad++ for 4 years just for daily notes as I take support calls for my job. I update it when prompted. We are now working from home and, maybe its just Windows 10, but the auto-complete window is constantly up and running along as I type. THIS IS DRIVING ME CRAZY. I do not want ANYTHING auto completed as we use specific jargon that makes no sense to autocomplete and then I have to go back and make corrections.
      I found on your site where it says to just go to Settings>Preferences and turn off auto complete. Well here is what I see when I go to Settings>Preferences:

        @Tim-Martin ,

        No, that is not what you see. That is part of what you see.

        The left panel, which you left out of your screenshot, allows you to select different options:
        14ed4f8e-c99a-4481-a582-4591f44b1284-image.png

        Click on Auto-Completion, which will then show you:

        That is the page where you change auto-completion settings.

          Holy cow, I am incredibly embarrassed. I have my screen setup with notepad++ in the upper left corner and when I go to preferences, what I pasted into my post was all I was seeing. After I saw your post I did it again and scooted the window over and – well, thanks for helping me find what was there all along…
