Change your keyboard language to US only instead of US International.

It's worth noting that vscode has a separate editor setting for auto closing quotes from that of brackets. If you have: "editor.autoClosingQuotes": "never" in your settings, then vscode will never close quotes. On the other hand, if you have "editor.autoClosingQuotes": "always", then it will always add the extra closing quote.

FYI: this is a bug/feature, in that the double quotes auto-close when the cursor has nothing to the right of it. However, when there is something to the right of the cursor, then your only get one quote.

<h1 className="|> <== the closing > on the h1 tag prevents the auto-close.
<h1 className="|" > <== the space to the right allows auto-close to work.

I had a similar issue and came across this link that describes it.
