I'm currently using Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 and it has this feature that allows you to scroll past the end of the file.
I want to disable it because it's making me literally crazy. I can't find any configuration option to disable this feature.
Is there any option to disable it, where can I find this option? if not, is there any hack to disable it?

I use ResXFileCodeGeneratorEx for generating ids. This was working till the time I used Visual Studio 2010 IDE but it is not working for Visual Studio 2017.
Please help for the same.
Extension for Visual Studio 2019 can be found here
Extension for Visual Studio 2017 can be found here
The deleted answer to this question pointed to the location of a newly built ResXFileCodeGeneratorEx but was deleted because it only contained a single link and no context. I'm not the original answerer, but figured that it may still be valuable to have this information:
It seems to have been renamed to ResXCodeFileGeneratorEx, and if you search through the menu in Visual Studio under Tools > Extension and Updates, you need to search for "Extended Strongly Typed Resource Generator".
However, the internal name is still the same, so the Custom Tool action should remain ResXFileCodeGeneratorEx.
I'm not aware whether or not it works on Visual Studio 2019, but since the original source is still around, it oughtn't be too hard to resolve that yourself if you need it.
To install it, simply doubleclick the VSIX file, it will popup with the VS Version Instance Selector, where you can select to which of your VS 2017 instances (pro, community, preview) you want to install the extension to.
I downloaded the visual studio 2017 with c# and xamarin when it gave me a lot of choices at installation time, now I want to install c++ also in existing vs2017. How can I do that? I don't want to install the whole visual studio again.
1.Go to Control panel
2.In the Add or Remove Programs dialog box, select the product you want to repair and then click Change/Remove
3.In the Setup wizard, click Next
4.Click Repair
5.Then Modify it by selecting C++ to add it.
Note : This work in Window OS only
Alternative answer (less searching needed) : Visual Studio 2017 also adds the " Visual Studio Installer" directly to the Windows Start Menu (this is the same executable used by #John Joe's answer).
Hello I am trying to create a “.resx” file and when I went to the menu add “new item” it doesn't show me the template for create resources file as it shows in the following image. But if I go to Visual Studio 2015 it actually shows that option available. So why if it is visual studio 2017 it doesn't come with that template by default ? And I want to know what are the steps that I have to take in order to install this template.
Note: If my question is incorrectly please AND YOU ARE GOING TO GIVE ME A DISLIKE make sure to GIVE ME A FEEDBACK Thank you for reading this.

After having the same issue (I think). I found that you have to choose ".NET desktop develpment" when you install VS 2017 to get the resource template.
Search for visual studio installer in your menu and then choose modify.
Check ".NET desktop develpment" and click modify. After that you should be able to see the templates in VS 2017.
what about this one?
ResX Manager
When I right click on a type, for example int and click peek help I am always shown the same page:
Writing Code in the Code and Text Editor
How can I fix this?
I found the Custom Web Search Visual Studio extension to be a decent replacement for this functionality. However, it only supports Visual Studio 2017.
I made a custom Google search because the search function on learn.microsoft.com is less than desirable: https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Alearn.microsoft.com+{QUERY}, e.g. https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Alearn.microsoft.com+CreateFile.
It's remarkable how much one comes to rely on the red squigglies once they're gone.
I have 1 c++ solution in Visual Studio 2013 where the red squigglies will not show up. The rest of Intellisense works, except for the error checking. I have tried:
Resetting all settings in Visual Studio
Uninstalling and reinstalling Visual Studio
Deleting the dev folder and getting latest from TFS
Deleting all *.sdf files in the dev folder.
This problem only appears in 1 solution, though. I can create a new VC++ solution, and those magical red squigglies show up where they should.
Also, I'm not sure if this is related or not, but I globally lost variable highlighting in the enhanced scroll bar. In Visual Studio 2013, if you focus the cursor over a variable, you will see little highlights appear in the scroll bar, indicating where the variable is used. That feature no longer works across the board. Edits (yellow), Breakpoints (red), and saves(green) work, but not variable highlighting.
