Using VsVim, Ctrl-H should be backspacing characters while in insert mode. However, this doesn't work while Visual Assist is enabled.
I don't know of any Visual Assist hotkeys using Ctrl-H, and I'm certain I have nothing bound to Ctrl-H. 3 of my other colleagues with fresh installs have the same issue - resolved by disabling Visual Assist. |

Which IDE and version of VA are you using? If you disable VA, is CTRL-H working as expected?
Testing VS2019 here, VA not installed at all, CTRL-H is bringing up the IDE quick find and replace dialog, and looking in the menus, it is mapped to:
Edit menu -> Find and Replace -> Quick Replace
by default. Even after installing VsVim, it is still bringing up the IDE quick find and replace dialog, when in Insert mode. |

Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2019, Version 16.4.5
Visual Assist 10.9.2358.0
I might have needed to unbind Ctrl-H through VS Keyboard options, but my Ctrl-H doesn't open a replace dialog.
I checked the menu option as you suggested, neither Quick Find or Quick Replace have a bound hotkey for me - just Ctrl-Shift-F and Ctrl-Shift-H for the non-quick variants.
Disabling VA makes Ctrl-H work as expected, I can enable/disable multiple times to reproduce/fix the issue. If I start editing a text file quick enough, Ctrl-H will typically work once before the VA-syntax highlighting kicks in. |

| As an additional test, I also tried unbinding Ctrl-Shift-H. Still no luck! |

Ahh good idea, was hyped for that to work! But I installed 2.9.471, still seeing same issue :( still only working with VA disabled.
I also have an open issue in VsVim's github here, just in case it's a VsVim problem after all: https://github.com/VsVim/VsVim/issues/2779
Will update that issue with this information too, thanks! |

I had to go into the VsVim options and make sure it was set to handle CTRL-H its self, now done.
Just to be sure, I tried disabling all VA options, but CTRL-H still does not work when VA is installed and enabled. I have added this to our bug report for VsVim compatibility:

Ctrl-H in VsVim Insert-Mode doesn't work
