How do I completely disable inline code suggestions?

I have tried changing all possible settings to try and disable inline code completion in cursor but to no avail.

Is it not possible to turn off inline code suggestions please?

To completely disable inline code suggestions in Cursor, follow these steps:

Method 1: Disable via Settings (JSON)

  1. Open Settings JSON:

    • Use the command palette (Ctrl+Shift+P or Cmd+Shift+P).
    • Search for “Preferences: Open User Settings (JSON)” and select it.
  2. Add/Modify Settings:
    Add these lines to your settings.json file:

    {
      // Disable general inline suggestions
      "editor.inlineSuggest.enabled": false,
      // Disable Cursor's AI-powered completions
      "cursor.completions.enabled": false,
      // Disable Codeium (if used)
      "codeium.enabled": false
    }
    
  3. Restart Cursor for changes to take effect.


Method 2: GUI Settings

  1. Go to Settings (Ctrl+, or Cmd+,).
  2. Search for:
    • “Inline Suggestions” → Uncheck Editor > Inline Suggestions: Enabled.
    • “Cursor Completions” → Disable Cursor › Completions: Enabled.
    • “Codeium” → Disable Codeium: Enabled.
