In my Visual Studio Code, I need to hit 'I' to enter to the Edit Mode. Hit 'Esc' for the Normal Mode. Selecting the word enables the Visual Mode. In visual mode, I can't delete the line or word using the Backspace. Is there any settings where I can disable these modes, so that I can directly go and start typing like a normal code editor.

This is because Vim extension is installed. To solve:

go to extensions, type Vim, disable/uninstall.

if you use VSCode with Unity3D because of the fact it's lighter on resources and better than MonoDevelop and have added the unity3d-pack (which force installs vim for some unknown reason and you can't disable the vim extension) you can override its startup mode in your personal settings.json file by putting

"vim.startInInsertMode": true

in it. I personally hate the way it is setup as well, but the extensions I use with Unity3D outweigh the downfalls of the other ones. Hope this helps someone.
