Disable "favorite" (★) suggestions in IntelliSense for Visual Studio 2019?

In Visual Studio 2019, how can someone disable the "favorite" (★) suggested names on auto-completion?. These suggestions inside the red square and ONLY these:

It is the most annoying feature.

If important: I need to disable it for VB.NET and then for C# too.

I know the question is for Visual Studio 2019, but this was the top result in Google for Visual Studio 2022.

For Visual Studio 2022 it's

Tools > Options > IntelliCode > General

And untick Promote likely items in IntelliSense completion lists

First, thanks to Ahmed for sharing the useful suggestions and his help.

★ is the feature of IntelliCode and it will put your most likely Suggestions to the top for easy use.

All of them are from the extension called Visual Studio IntelliCode.

You can find it under Extensions-->Manage Extensions-->Installed

Solution

Tools-->Options-->IntelliCode-->General and disable these options:

In addition, if you do not want to use the whole IntelliCode, you can just disable that extension under Manage Extensions UI.
