How do I turn off SQL Prompt+ AI?

How do I turn off SQL Prompt+ AI? I tried it and disliked it as it was totally pointless and unusable

Twice I have now accidentally opened it and it has locked up SSMS and made it end up crashing and restarting.

I have the same issue in prompt AI+ makes ssms close down (not answered) — Redgate forums (red-gate.com)

Hi, 

As SQL Prompt AI is intended as a permenant feature in the newer versions of SQL Prompt, the only was to remove it would be to downgrade to V10.13.16

Your feedback has been passed to the development team who have acknowleged it. If we see any changes as a result, this will be reflected in the release notes of future versions.

That's a really poor design forcing something so intrusive on users. The constant popup of that icon is particularly annoying.

I hope they get this fixed fast.

Hello,

There is a work around to stop the red database AI icon appearing (This should stop you accidentally opening it).

Open the folder: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Red Gate\SQL Prompt 10

And delete the file: ai-auth.token

This will stop the icon appearing, but  if you want to use the AI feature again you’ll need to log in again. And if you do that, the red icon will start appearing again.

Thanks for your feedback on prompt+. Sorry that we’ve disrupted your workflow, we’re looking at the issue now, and we’ll let you know about any progress we make. If you have any questions, just ask.

Tom
