How to disable the Formatter in Delphi 2010

The formatter in Delphi 2010 is really an annoying thing to me. I prefer formatting my code manually. I believe I do it better.

How can I disable it?

NOTE: Answers on why I don't use it in the first place will not be accepted. I need it switched OFF. Nothing more, nothing less.

There is no need for downloading and installing an extension, not even for deleting a file!

In the Delphi 10 Options head to:

Formatting / Delphi / Profiles and Status (the captions may differ slightly, I have translated them from German)

There is a Checkbox there, titled "Activate Formatting".

enter image description here

Possible downside: This Formatter feature is also deactivated in the Edit menu.

Remove or rename the file Embarcadero.Modeling.Formatter.dll in Delphi's bin directory.
