I did a ctrl K + ctrl C (adds //
to a line) on a lot of lines of code that I need uncommented. What is the quick key method to uncomment code in Visual studio?
Visual Studio Solutions
Solution 1 - Visual Studio
Ctrl+K, Ctrl+U removes the //
comments
Solution 2 - Visual Studio
I believe it is Ctrl + K, Ctrl + U.
Solution 3 - Visual Studio
Ctrl + K, Ctrl + U.
There is also a button for it on the Standard toolbar.
Solution 4 - Visual Studio
If you're using Resharper, there is a much nicer alternative:
> just right Alt + /
for both
By using this single shortcut, you can simply toggle between commenting/uncommenting code, without having to remember/switch between two shortcuts for each.
Solution 5 - Visual Studio
ctrl + / can be used for adding and removing comments.
Solution 6 - Visual Studio
Try
Solution 7 - Visual Studio
Qwerty: Ctrl + /
Azerty: Ctrl + :
Solution 8 - Visual Studio
Ctrl + K + C (to comment) and Ctrl + k + U (to uncomment the code)
Or
or use Ctrl + / (for the same)
Solution 9 - Visual Studio
Just wanted to add, that in the latest version of VS, ctrl + u
makes it caps. They instead made it a toggle command, so it is actually just ctrl + k
again to make it uncommented.

I have the german keyboardlayout. VSCode-x64-1.52.1 To leave a comment: You have to highlight the code, then push Ctrl + # or Ctrl+K, stay at Ctrl and push C
to commen out: Ctrl + #, it toggles on/off the comment or Ctrl + K, stay at Ctrl and push U
Solution 11 - Visual Studio
Mine was a bit different. It is ctrl-shift-C to comment and ctrl-shift-alt-C to uncomment.
I am using Visual Studio Community 2017.
Solution 12 - Visual Studio
Ctrl + Q alternates between comment and uncomment. Unfortunately Ctrl K Ctrl U does not work in few environments, rather it adds instead of removing. My case on windows, using composer file I faced Ctrl K Ctrl U not working. I m using VS Code, ver 1.36.1

Solution 13 - Visual Studio
