How do I get my cursor to jump to the last character on a line?

This problem has not always been around, and I can find no option in VS or ReSharper to correct it, but when I use the mouse to place the cursor on a shortish line of code, and I place the cursor near the end of the line, in whitespace, it stays there, instead of jumping back to the last character on the line.

You can uncheck the option Texteditor -> All Languages -> General -> Enable virtual space in Visual Studio. This way your cursor will always be placed at the last character of a line when you click anywhere in the whitespace area at the end of a line.

Note however if your line ends with whitespaces you actually typed in, it will place the cursor after the last actual whitespace of that line. Use Ctrl + Left Arrow to jump to the last actual character of that line.

You can use Alt + Backspace to quickly delete all whitespaces at the end of a line.
