Hi, could you please provide a screen recording showing the issue you are experiencing, and paste here the example of the code you are using? This would help in reproducing the issue.

@aiday-mar Attaching file is a record, and this can happen to any code

// CJS require cache busting
/**
 * @type {() => Promise<ServerBuild>}
 */
async function reimportServer() {
  // 1. manually remove the server build from the require cache
  Object.keys(require.cache).forEach((key) => {
    if (key.startsWith(BUILD_PATH)) {
      delete require.cache[key];
    }
  });

  // 2. re-import the server build
  return require(BUILD_PATH);
}

Hi @luqimin thank you for the response. I am currently not able to reproduce this issue as you can see in the gif below. I noticed that the tokens under your cursor become links. Are you holding pressed some key while hovering (like the ctrl/cmd key)?

This is rather a curious issue and I am wondering if it is caused by some extension. Could you paste here a list of the extensions you are using?

@aiday-mar thanks for your response.

I was holding CMD, but it's not a problem, the tooltip will not appear whether I hold cmd or not.

And I can't reproduce this issue in other Macbook too, even I signed the same account and settings sync is on. It's really weird.

I tried uninstall vscode, but it does not work, maybe I didn't find the right way to remove vscode completely.

Extensions are listed in the first floor:
