How do I stop Notepad++ from showing autocomplete for all words in the file

I’m trying to use Notepad++ with the Progress programming language.

I have installed the language definition in %APPDATA%\Roaming\Notepad++ as userDefineLang.xml and syntax highlighting is working correctly.

I’ve put a file in the notepad++ Plugins\APIs directory named progress.xml, but the contents are not recognized by Notepad++.

I’ve also removed all the other language files from that directory and Notepad++ still shows the exact same autocomplete suggestions it did before I removed them.

Also, when typing in a program, it looks like every word in the file is an auto-complete suggestion, not just the keywords or function names.

Anyone know how to track this down?
