How to disable codelens in VS code?

Question

I\'ve searched but didn\'t find any info on how to disable references (or the codelens completely) in the Visual Studio Code, they\'re quite useless and annoying for me.

Answer 1

You can enable or disable code lense by setting the editor.codeLens setting in user settings (see https://code.visualstudio.com/Docs/editor/editingevolved#_reference-information for more info).

Answer 2

Update: in the new settings editor of VSCode, it's as simple as typing codelens in the search and ticking the first checkbox in the results:

For me, the setting that fixed it was:

"editor.codeLens": false

in my user preferences json file.
