The only thing I can think of is that its a bug with VS2015 Update 2 because the other machine where it does work has VS2015 with no updates installed.

Some examples:

This is what it should show:

    Did you try turning it off and on again? Try closing VS and/or rebooting. Crazy as it sounds, it works many times. – Big Daddy Jun 02 '16 at 11:46

  • Thanks but this was the first thing I tried which I forgot to mention, Auto list members and Parameter information are both checked but don't seem to make any differences to this problem (for the C# options). – VinceJS Jun 02 '16 at 13:36
  • @VinceJS what about this SO post? Looks like the same problem of yours. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/37500027/visual-studio-not-showing-intellisense-descriptions-anymore?lq=1 – opelhatza Jun 02 '16 at 13:38
  • Yabadabadoo - That worked Andreas A! Installing the .NET Framework 4.5.2 Developer Pack (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42637) did it! If you put it in as a full answer, I will mark it as the answer! – VinceJS Jun 03 '16 at 08:31
  • @VinceJS made an edit to my answer. Glad that it worked. – opelhatza Jun 03 '16 at 17:08
