[FIXED] How to disable dialog that shows on pasting code in NetBeans?

Issue

When I paste a piece of code in the current HTML file NetBeans (12.5) always shows me the following dialog:

So, I need to press Esc every time. How to disable this dialog not to show it?

Solution

Displaying the Completion Window for HTML files is enabled by default, but it is easy to disable it:

• Select Tools > Options > Editor
• Select HTML from the Language droplist
• Uncheck the Auto Popup Completion Window checkbox
• Click Apply

Notes:

• The change is immediately effective.
• There are several other checkboxes in that same Options dialog (as shown above) which allow the Completion Window to still popup in specific situations.
• Similar functionality for the Completion Window is also provided for some other languages, such as Java, JavaScript and PHP. Just select other languages from the Language drop list to see what functionality is available.
