How to disable tab completion in vim?

From this morning I'm searching for a solution without any lucks. Can you please tell me how to disable this thing who appears when I press TAB?

enter image description here

This is my .vimrc file:

set nocompatible
filetype off
set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/vundle/
call vundle#rc()

" This is the Vundle package, which can be found on GitHub.
" For GitHub repos, you specify plugins using the
" 'user/repository' format
Plugin 'gmarik/vundle'

" We could also add repositories with a ".git" extension
Plugin 'scrooloose/nerdtree.git'

" To get plugins from Vim Scripts, you can reference the plugin
" by name as it appears on the site
Plugin 'Buffergator'

" Syntax hihgler
Plugin 'scrooloose/syntastic'


" Pluginper gli snippet
Plugin 'msanders/snipmate.vim'

" Plugin per la gestione delle parentesi, per maggiori informazioni: https://github.com/jiangmiao/auto-pairs
 Plugin 'jiangmiao/auto-pairs'


" Now we can turn our filetype functionality back on
filetype plugin indent on

" Enable syntax high.
syntax on

" Set the default charset
set encoding=utf-8 nobomb

" Enable line number
set number

" Highligth cursor line
set cursorline

" Set tab as 2 white space
set tabstop=4
set shiftwidth=4
set softtabstop=4
set expandtab


" Enable mouse in all mode
set mouse=a

" Show the cursor position
set ruler

" Show the filename inside the titlebar
set title


" Strip trailing whitespace (,ss)
function! StripWhitespace()
    let save_cursor = getpos(".")
    let old_query = getreg('/')
    :%s/\s\+$//e
    call setpos('.', save_cursor)
    call setreg('/', old_query)
endfunction



" Map CTRL+n to toggle nerdtree
map <C-n> :NERDTreeToggle<CR>

"  close vim if the only window left open is a NERDTree
autocmd bufenter * if (winnr("$") == 1 && exists("b:NERDTreeType") && b:NERDTreeType == "primary") | q | endif

filetype plugin on


" More Common Settings.
 set scrolloff=3
 set autoindent
 set showmode
 set hidden
 set visualbell

Completion can be stopped via <c-y> to stop and accept the current completion or via <c-e> which stops completion and restores the text as it was before the completion. However the most common way to stop completing is to type a non-keyword character like space or a symbol.

It should be noted that Vim does not complete on <tab> in insert mode by default. Instead it uses <c-n> and <c-p>. If completion is happening on <tab> then you may want to track down the mapping via :verbose imap <tab> as @FDinoff suggested.

:h ins-completion

It seems you have typed CTRLNCTRLP as mentioned at the bottom of your screenshot.

This is the default key for keyword completion. You might try to find out why and where TAB was remaped to completion with :verbose imap <Tab> it will show you the last place where it has been redefined.

I would have suspected something like SuperTab which use TAB for every kind of completion but I don't see it in your .vimrc.
