How to turn off Auto highlight text in Vim editor?

Question

In VIM text editor, everytime whenever I type ''typedef '', it gets highlighted automatically. How to fix this? I want to turn off word highlighting property in vim.

Read the `vim` documentation. – Jesper Juhl Sep 17 '22 at 06:40 — Jesper Juhl, Sep 17 '22 at 06:40

Looks like you have the "highlight search" flag on and the last search was for typedef. You can turn the flag off with :set nohls.

You can inspect all settings with :set all.

You can read the help for highlight search with :help hls.
