Visual Studio Code, remove accent yellow square

Tutorial for how to remove Yellow squares on accents in Visual Studio Code.

I myself had the problem and I looked for almost 1 hour for a way to delete them and I'll explain how to do it!

I hope it will be useful to you! Tell me in the comments please.

Tutorial how to remove it.

You have to go to:

  • Settings (nuts)
  • Settings
  • Write Unicode at the top
  • Set “Editor > Unicode Highlights: Non basic ASCII” to False
  • Go back to your code and see that the yellow squares are no longer present

You can see the images below to check:

Go to settings, then write unicode then remove the yellow squares

 

Set to FALSE

  2. Hello, thank you for your walkthrough, which was very helpful.
    Another method that I would like to share here is to hover the mouse cursor over one of the characters surrounded by yellow, whereupon a tooltip appears with a clickable “Adjust settings” option.
    All you have to do is select the option: “Disable highlighting of non-basic ASCII characters” and you're done.
    Kisses.
