vscode: Ctrl + Space not working
Type: Bug
Hello,
Default mapping Ctrl+I works to show autocompletion but Ctrl+Space doesn’t. I tried on VSCode to binding again to Ctrl+Space but it doesn’t get the combination. I put it back to default and it didn’t work either. Even on basic HTML, Ctrl+Space doesn’t work (again, Ctrl+I works without troubles).

I realized the issue was caused by the latest Power Toys version (v0.70.0).
ctrl +spaceis bound by default to the new Peek widget.Can confirm this too. Updated my PowerToys last night and found the Ctrl+Space shortcut suddenly not working in the morning. You can just turn it off or change the shortcut
I can confirm this issue appeared right after updating vs code. Disabling extensions doesn’t fix it.
Hi!
If you want, you dont need to uninstall it. You can just disable the peek feature and it returns to work again.

I can confirm this, turning it off made the suggestions in vs code work again.
Just to register: updating PowerToys to 0.70.1 solves the problem without the need to disable Peek
YOU SAVE MY LIFE, I AM COMPLETELY GRATEFUL TO YOU!!
