How to fix jsdoc autocomplete not working in vscode

I have a project where my jsdoc autocomplete doesn't work in vscode.

Any ideas why or settings I can check to figure out why hitting enter doesn't automatically add a line with a *?

These are my enabled extensions:

For me the culprit was the GitHub Copilot extension, like mentioned in this answer.

In summary, disable the extension,

or

open settings (f1 -> Open Settings(JSON)) and add

"editor.autoClosingBrackets": "languageDefined",
"[javascript]": {
    "editor.autoClosingBrackets": "languageDefined"
},
"[typescript]": {
  "editor.autoClosingBrackets": "languageDefined"
},

and other languages you use I guess

I had the same issue on my Angular project. What I did is to add "editor.autoClosingBrackets": "languageDefined" per language like this:

  "[javascript]": {
    "editor.autoClosingBrackets": "languageDefined"
  },
  "[typescript]": {
    "editor.autoClosingBrackets": "languageDefined"
  }

This works for me but it's annoying though because you have to do it per language. But I think they're working on this. github

For everyone who has the same problem.

I found this answer useful. It looks like VSCode is treating comments on the same way like Brackets.

editor.autoClosingBrackets I had this configuration on "never" and changed it to "languageDefined".

I also had the same issue, I got it fixed by setting the showWords to true

"editor.suggest.showWords": true

Kind of a bummer though, I really wanted to disable word suggestions but keep using the JSDoc, but for now I will just filter them out.

Hopefully, this will help someone having this issue.

In my case, it was the editor.autoIndent preference setting that was set to none. Setting it to advanced or full fixes the issue with jsdoc indent autocompletion on Enter.
