Visual Studio 2022 how to disable spellcheck?

Today I updated my (Windows 10) PC and started my day noticing a lot of green squiggly lines telling me all sort of weird things like how words like Perform and Vehicle aren't real words

enter image description here

Which is slowly driving me nuts.

If I try to search under tools > options (or under feature search) for things like spell, spelling, spell check, spellcheck I am told there are no such results. If I google it I get results like this telling me it's a preview feature that's not available (but being developed) leading me to believe it's under Preview Features. But Santa Clausing that list leads me nowhere. I also get a link a spellcheck extension, a stackoverflow post about VS2010 filled with non-solutions. I have no spell checking extensions installed either.

So, how do I get rid of it? It checks most things. From variable names to function names, to strings and the links I use for HTTP requests and I just want it to stop

From the MSDN: Toggle it by going to Edit -> Advanced -> Toggle Spell Checker.

Just do a mouseover on the squiggly lines and click the bulb.

There you can disable spellchecking.

As per @JoseParra's suggestion, all I had to do to fix this was update from preview 2 to preview 3
