I was working on a project recently, and I woke up one day to find that my trusty code editor was misbehaving. It took me a while (and a three-commit forced rollback plus two-commit debugging) to find out. It was not a happy experience. Plus I had to put up with this for almost two months.
To save an old friend the trouble of finding the solution to this issue as much as I did and avoid messing with your sweet keybindings, here’s how to fix this issue in VSCode.
- Open the bloody VSCode.
- On the top bar (window bar), click “Selection”.
- Click (disable) column selection mode.
And that’s how I fixed this bloody pain in the ass.
Happy hacking! 🙂
