2025 Update for Visual Studio 2022

If you are like me, and you only want to disable annoyances with quotation autocompletion, and continue having braces autocomplete, you may be in luck!

I just installed this plugin here to fix the usability issues:

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=MadsKristensen.QuoteCompletionFix

This fixed my issues with quote autocompletion in code files from what I can tell so far - but the issue still persists in plain text files. But I don't care about quote or brace autocompletion in text files, so I just disabled it entirely for only that file type by turning off the option located in the Visual Studio UI at:

Toolbar -> Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> Plain Text -> General -> Automatic Brace Completion

Many thanks to Mads Kristensen for this highly useful extension!
