This should not happen and there is already an option (disabled by default for this):
What version of notepad++ are you using?
I just tried 3P on the latest version and I do not have the syntax lightning... I think it stopped working from notepad++ version 8. They must have changed something in the API.
Download this version https://notepad-plus-plus.org/downloads/v7.9.5/, install 3P again and you should see syntax highlighting:
Then it will behave as you expect because it detects that you are in a comment.
Hi, downgrading to version 7.9.5 is not an option for me as my organization forces updating to N++ to 8.4. Any other solution for this ?

By the way, thank you for fixing this.
Is there a way to stop this?
I turned off the setting to force the autocomplete when starting a new word, and that helps. (The autocomplete options list appears, but no longer does 3P force the first match when I hit the space bar.) However, the syntax case is still being forced inside comments. This happens within both styles of comments.
