Hi, I have the 1.87 version and i keep getting the same error. The worst is that code insert ? automatically so I have to remove it manually every time I operate on objects

from typescript.

Are you sure it's not being picked up a syntax error? https://www.typescriptlang.org/play?filetype=js#code/DYUwLgBGBOIhBeCBvMBPADiAXBA5AHYD2BIeAvgNwCwAUDHAPwB06Wi+AhhhqHpUA

Hi, looking on internet I read that the optional chaining is not allowed in the left side of assignements. but my problem is still emmet keep inserting ? every time i tab object.method

from typescript.

For now I solved creating the snippets for .textContent and .innerHTML that I use to make assignements but it should be nice to know how to disable emmet to insert ? automatically. I m not finding the trick on internet.
I found out that the problem appear only with DOM objects, with normal objects i can write assignements to properties without autoinsertion of ?.

Yes. See attached screenshot.

Hi, i found the problem in settings.json, and exactely this line:

"js/ts.implicitProjectConfig.checkJs": true,

putting false or deleting the line the problem of autoinserting ? disappears but the left-hand side is still present.
