Open the menu, chose the command File > Preferences > Settings
to open or create a settings.json
file where you can modify the behaviour of Visual Studio Code.
In this file, add the following line at an appropriate place:
"editor.parameterHints": false,
In newer version of Visual Studio Code you have to use this instead:
"editor.parameterHints.enabled": false,

1With vscode 1.69.2, I had to use the setting: `"editor.inlayHints.enabled": "off"` – Joel Jul 27 '22 at 12:22
I went to File->Preferences->Settings and a tab opened with Commonly Used at the top. Did Ctrl-F to search parameter, then uncheck the box which is saved automatically it will say. Done.

For me it didn't work but someone on github mention that once you start typing, if the parameter hints show up, just press **ctrl + space**
and it won't show up again. It was simple and easy!

To turn off parameter hints in VS Code through the GUI go to > preferences > settings, then type parameter in the search box. You will see Editor > Parameter Hints > Enabled. Just uncheck the box. That solved the problem for me. After searching for over an hour I stumbled on it myself. I only downloaded VS Code a few days ago so I have the newest version.
