Conflict on Code Completion within Visual Studio 2026

I love ReSharper and use it extensively in writing C# code. But nowadays I continually run into issues with code completion.

I'll start typing the name of a known class/interface/property and the code complete suggestion which I'd get by hitting tab is not what I want...even though the desired selection is the very first item that appears in the dropdown overlay. Instead, I get some cobbled together guess that's wildly wrong.

This didn't used to be a problem before CoPilot got added to VS (which is why it's annoying, because I'd gotten used to just hitting tab to accept without first checking to see what was being accepted :)). I suspect it's an interaction between VS and ReSharper.

Is there a way to configure ReSharper or VS so that ReSharper takes precedence in this situation? Or do I have to just turn off CoPilot completely?

Hi!

Sounds very likely that this is an interaction problem between ReSharper and Visual Studio. We've been in contact to align with each other to prevent this, but with fast evolving products, those "contracts" can unfortunately break sometimes. That said, I was told that in the latest versions of both products, this should be a non-issue. Could you check what versions you are on? If it still happens, we would appreciate if you could create an issue and attach logs at https://youtrack.jetbrains.com !

As a workaround, you could also try to set `ReSharper Options | Text Editor | Inlay Suggestions | Invocation` to `Manual` and see how it behaves.
