Can you turn off Peek Definition in Visual Studio 2013 and up?

In the latest version of Visual Studio 2017 (15.4.0) it is:

ToolsOptionsText EditorGeneralEnable mouse click to perform Go to Definition

You can either disable it by unchecking the box, or set a different key to trigger the mode.


If you have Resharper AND Productivity Power Tools, by default this will cause ctrl + click to go to definition AND peek the definition. Very annoying. The solution from @SnowFatal will turn off the peek functionality. Resharper's option is listed as "Go to Declaration on <Control + Left Click> in the editor".


In pre 2017 Visual Studio:

ToolsOptionsProductivity Power ToolsOther ExtensionsControl click shows definitions in Peek

Adam Garner pointed out that in Visual Studio 2017, the location is:

ToolsOptionsText EditorGeneralEnable mouse click to perform Go to Definition


Ctrl + Click -> Peek Definition is actually enabled by Productivity Power Tools. If you disable "Ctrl + Click Go To Definition" in Productivity Power Tools options then this behaviour will disappear.
