Enable the automatic asterisk to each new line comment and curly braces autoformatting

First of all, yes I'm trying to enable the automatic asterisk to each new line comment. It worked on Visual Studio 2013 but it is not working in VS 2015 RTM.

I tried reversing the steps in here to no avail: How to disable the automatic asterisk in Visual Studio when adding a multi-line comment in C#?

I reset all environment settings in the "Import and Export Settings Wizard" but didn't work.

In VS 2013 we also had the possibility to do the following:

public void Method(){**CURSOR IS HERE** }

When I pressed enter when my cursor is where I had indicated, I would get:

 public void Method()
    {
       //I would start typing immediately!
    }

Is it possible to return these behaviors back to VS?

I haven't found an answer to the multiline comments (see this question), but I have fixed the formatting. It bothered me too!

  • To enable the block text format go to

    Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> C# -> Formatting -> Wrapping
    

    and make sure that

    Leave block on single line
    

    and

    Leave statements and member declarations on the same line
    

    are both checked.

  • You can also change the indent of the code block when you do want it on the next line:

    Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> C# -> Formatting -> Indentation
    
    Indent open and close braces
